BOLT (Bearers of Light and Tradition) training for children and youth — Saturday (31 August 2013) at 1:00 PM (during the Paint Party).
Because our worship services now involve our entire multi-generational community each week, we will be seeking to involve more of our children and youth in the worship experience in ways befitting their ages, abilities and interests.
To that end, we plan to offer a second training this Saturday that will cover these various ceremonial tasks of worship:
- Lighting candles for the Principles and Sources
- Lighting the chalice
- Speaking into the microphone /reading the chalice words and other readings
- Taking the offering (Serving with our adult ushers)
- Passing out orders of service / Greeting our members and guests (Serving with our adult greeters)
Parents, please encourage your children to take part in this session. They will need to take the training before they can participate in the service in these ways. We would like to make our worship services as much a community experience as possible.
If they are interested in the training but cannot make this session, don’t worry, we will do it again.
