Acolytes assist the clergy at the Altar. They lead processions in and out of worship, light and extinguish candles, and assist with the setting of the Altar. This ministry is open to both youth and adults.
There will be an Acolyte Training immediately following the 10:30 a.m. Eucharist on Sunday, March 17 in Immanuel Chapel. Come and see! Children's Chapel is held each Sunday at 10:00 a.m. in the Oratory at Immanuel Chapel. The Children's Chapel is a 25-minute service full of prayer, Bible stories, music, and reflections to teach our younger parishioners about God's love. Grown-ups and siblings are also welcome!
Have you never been Confirmed? Are you interested in being Received into the Episcopal Church? Might you want to re-affirm your faith in a public way?
All of these will be possible as Immanuel has its Bishop’s visitation on Sunday, April 28th. Our youth confirmation class has just begun, and we are now gathering adults who would be interested in learning more about living the Christian faith within the Anglican tradition. Please contact Fr. Randy directly if you are interested: ralexander@icoh.net Members of Immanuel Church-on-the-Hill traveled to Richmond on January 17 to visit with state representatives about newly-enacted procedural safeguards and oversight for prisoners in solitary confinement and to see what other improvements may be made on this issue. The national Episcopal Church and many other denominations have formally condemned punitive solitary confinement of more than two weeks as a form of torture.
You can read more about this issue and the ongoing efforts Immanuel has made to answer Jesus' call to care for those in prison HERE. Tired of cash, checks and plastic?
