Mary Wellman & Betty Harris, co-chairs
The Altar Guild currently has nine members who prepare the altar for services at All Saints’. We arrange flowers, fill candles, set up for Holy Eucharist, clean up afterwards, care for linens, and assist with special services such as funerals/memorial services and weddings. We maintain the objects used during worship, polishing brass and silver on a regular basis. Please consider joining us in our “behind-the-scenes” ministry by contacting Betty Harris or Mary Wellman.
Ordering flowers for the Altar at All Saints Episcopal Church
1. Folks may now call Susan Molina in the parish office ( 252-537-3610 ) to order flowers for the altar.***You can now order your altar flowers through this website. Simply fill out the form located under the "forms" tab at the top of the website. https://allsaintsrr.org/form/8449 Take a moment and review the information below before sending your request.
Orders for an upcoming Sunday have to be placed by 12:00 noon on Wednesday so Susan can contact Flowers by Wayne in Jackson and get the information into the bulletins.
2. Consider giving flowers in memory or in honor of a loved one, in thanksgiving, or to remember one of All Saints’ own “Saints” who may not have family members still active in our church to recall their contributions.
3. Wayne will choose the flowers for the arrangements based on cost. Currently the cost for altar flowers is $35.00 per arrangement ($70 total). Wayne makes lovely arrangements. If folks are interested in sharing the cost, please have one person act as the contact person, gather the information for all parties involved, and relay the information to Susan .
*Note – special requests will be shared, but keep in mind that customized arrangements are usually priced higher and may require flowers to be ordered directly by the person making the request. Deadlines still apply.*
