And so it begins. Well, continues...

The collective faith and wisdom of the generations...

That is what shapes the ministry of an Altar Guild. How that faith and wisdom is passed along changes from time to time, along with some of the wisdom, or at least some of the practices. One thing I know: an Altar Guild manual can never really capture all there is to know about the Ministry of the Altar.

And so, dear reader, I present this living, growing collective of Altar Ministry, this repository of experience and wisdom from my observations of the life of the Altar Guild of Trinity Episcopal Church in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania. May it serve as a guide to this most gracious, and often overlooked, ministry.

Your comments, suggestions, requests, and questions are most welcome.

In faith and in search of wisdom, I am your

Trinity Church Altar Observer
