St. Alban’s has many ministries through which people are invited into participation and spiritual service in our worship life.

Each of these is not just a job but a ministry: an offering of your gifts to help shape how our community meets God. If any of these call to you, we’d love to invite you into training and participation.
Young people (or adults) trained to assist in processions, serve at the altar, carry torch or cross — a way to embody liturgical leadership.
Those who read the Scripture readings in worship. They offer a gift of presence, clarity, and care in proclaiming God’s word.
Leading the community’s prayers — lifting hopes, concerns, thanksgivings, and needs in a collective voice.
Welcoming people, handing out service leaflets, guiding congregants, and creating a hospitable worship environment.
At the 10:30 service, the choir (under Dr. Ray Urwin) leads congregational singing, anthems, choral settings, and helps shape worship’s musical theology.
Preparing the altar, vessels, linens, vestments, and other sacramental elements. The quiet but essential work that helps worship flow.
Ensuring that our mics work for the service, and that our livestream is up and running.
Supporting elements like children’s reflections, art, visuals, or liturgical aids that help people of all ages engage in worship.
Working with clergy to plan hymn selections, readings, liturgical flow, special services or seasons (e.g., Advent, Holy Week).
