Acolytes We are the St. Mathias Acolytes! We lead the processions as cross bearers at the beginning, Gospel reading and recession at the end of service. Together with lighting and putting out the alter candles we assist the service celebrant at receiving the collection and setting the alter table for communion. We usually serve in rotation about once a month. If you'd like to join us please contact Scott Vollmer at 757-508-9508.
Parish Life believes and confirms, above all, that to maintain the church as a healthy body, members should strive to know and appreciate each other. The Commission coordinates the hosting of social functions, the welcoming and inclusion of new members, and assisting all members to discover their individual ministries within the life of the congregation and in service to our community.
The Commission hosts events that bring our membership together in Christian fellowship. Our Community of Faith thus creates lasting relationships built on shared experiences.
Our Shared fellowship events include:
- Sunday morning coffee preparation, Summertime Lemonade on the Lawn
- Strawberry Sunday, Annual Fall BBQ, Annual Parish Picnic, and Progressive Dinner
Additionally, the Funeral Guild offers support to our members in their time of loss and grief.
