The work of the Altar Guild is to take the mundane “chores” of our life together – the washing of dishes, the setting of tables, the trimming of candles – and find in these things the Holiness of God.
And by finding the Holiness within these chosen vessels, they show us, who are also the chosen vessels of God, how He sees us, and how we are to see one another: as holy things, set apart to reveal the Glory of God.
