Lay Leaders in Worship
Lay leaders are an integral component of worship at the Church of the Epiphany, and we welcome volunteers to serve as:
- Acolytes • Children age 8 through teens carry the torches (tall processional candles)
- Readers • proclaim the scripture lessons and lead the Prayers of the People
- Eucharistic Ministers • assist with the distribution of wine at communion
- Crucifers • carry the cross in processions
- Ushers • greet congregants as they enter the church, provide service leaflets/bulletins, and help with directions
- Altar Guild • responsible for the care and setup of the linens, silver, and communion vessels used during worship
If you or your children are interested in assisting with any of these ministries, please email info@epiphanynyc.org or call the church office at 212-737-2720.
