ACOLYTE MINISTRY PROGRAM
Acolyte Ministry Program
Acolyting is a meaningful leadership experience for children in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. This role offers a unique opportunity to take an active part in worship by lighting the Christ candles at the beginning of our services in the main sanctuary. As acolytes, children will wear a special robe and cotta provided for them. This important role not only enhances the worship experience but also often becomes a treasured part of their children’s church journey.
We generally ask our acolytes to commit to one Sunday per month from September to May. If your child is considering becoming an acolyte, please contact Megan Klapp at mklapp@fumcbirmingham.org for further information.
