One of the most important ministries in the Episcopal church is the Altar Guild. The altar is the center of worship and praise in the Episcopal church and must be routinely cleaned and prepared by a team of very dedicated people. Members of the Altar Guild prepare the altar for all services, including Baptisms, the Eucharist, Weddings, Burials, and Memorials. They clean the communion vessels, wash the linens, dust, care for the candles, polish the silverware, and care for clergy vestments and inventory. Members of the Altar Guild must be approved by the Rector and training sessions are held on an ongoing basis.

Altar flowers signify the blossoms of grace, prayer, and virtue and are often given in celebration, remembrance, and thanksgiving.
