Altar Guild

The Altar Guild at Peace Lutheran Church fulfills the responsibility of preparing the altar for worship.  This means that they prepare for the celebration of Holy Communion (which is celebrated every Sunday) and change the paraments on the altar according to the seasons of the church year.

On the second Sunday of each month and at most special services, the congregation communes by means of intinction.  On most other occasions, individual glasses are used for the distribution of the wine.  The Altar Guild also makes sure the candles on the altar are filled with oil and that the Baptismal Candle is changed as needed.

The Altar Guild meets once a year in the fall to organize their serving schedule and discuss any changes in procedure or issues of concern.  New members are always welcome to join the Altar Guild.  Call the church office (715-755-2515) if you would like more information or to volunteer.
