Worship and Prayer
Contact Worship Chair Colin Hagensick or one of the Pastor to volunteer. The Worship and Prayer ministry includes:
Worship Assistants
Participate in key roles to make worship meaningful. Roles include assisting ministers, deacons (readers), greeters, nametags, nursery attendants, ushers, communion set-up, communion servers, and offering counters. Training for these tasks is held yearly.
Choir
Do you like listening to the choir on Sunday mornings? Do you like to sing? Do you like to get together with a great group each week to practice?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, the Lake Park Choir is for you.
The choir rehearses in the balcony at 7:15 p.m. each Wednesday from September through May (ok, maybe into June). The choir sings in worship approximately every other week and warms up in the balcony at 9:15 those Sunday mornings.
Variety is the key to choral music at Lake Park. During the year we sing everything from Bach chorals to calypso and classic choral anthems to gospel.
Can’t commit to an entire year? Join us in early November for our Advent concert in December or in the spring for Holy Week and Easter.
Questions? Contact Laurie Rappa, Choir Director. She is also found playing keyboards with Chris and Pr. David or sprinting back and forth from the balcony to the altar on Sunday mornings. Contact Laurie Rappa, Choir Director for more information.
Special Music
Do you sing or play an instrument? Share your talents with the congregation on Sunday mornings. To volunteer talk with Colin Hagensick, Mel Robbert, Laurie Rappa, Chris Hanson, or one of the pastors.
Worship Team
Help plan worship, decorate the worship space for the season, and choose music. Meetings monthly.
Ministers of Praise
Participate in this prayer ministry from the comfort of your own home. If one of your gifts is praying for others, sign up today. Donna Hagensick and Ruth Allison coordinate this ministry with Lynda South, the church secretary. You are provided with a list of prayer concerns to include in your prayers and updates are sent with some regularity.
“The overall goal of the altar guild is to see that the worship space is kept beautiful and in good order, both to glorify God and to provide setting that helps enable the congregation to worship in a meaningful way.” S. Anita Stauffer, Altar Guild and Sacristy Handbook
