Youth at Epiphany

Our youth programing is in a state of flux as we consider how to best conduct Christian formation after the pandemic break. As the school year approaches, we would love to hear from families and students interested in continuing the Sunday morning gatherings.
If you are interested in being included , send an email to Deacon John HERE.

Acolytes at Epiphany

An acolyte is an assistant to the celebrant in a religious service or processional. In the Episcopal Church acolytes can be female or male and range in age. At Epiphany, our acolytes begin around age 10 and continue through high school. (Adults acolyte as well, generally at the Saturday service and special services such as weddings or funerals).  Acolytes serve in worship by carrying processional cross, lighting candles, holding the Gospel book, holding candles or "torches", assisting a priest (or deacon) to set up at the altar for communion and clean up after, handing the offering plates to ushers, and other tasks during the service. At Epiphany, serving as a youth acolyte is a rite of passage. From a very young age, children aspire to become an acolyte under the tutelage of "Uncle Rick" Little (who was, himself, an Epiphany acolyte, oh so many years ago).  
​
A highlight of each year, is the October trip to Washington, DC for the National Acolyte Festival. 2019 was the the 34th consecutive festival attended by Epiphany acolytes. The trip is funded by the Adrian Miller Memorial Chicken BBQ held annually on the last Sunday of April.

Sadly, due to the coronavirus, both the BBQ in April and the festival in October were canceled for 2020 & 2021. A successful fundraising BBQ was held on May 1, 2022, firing up the new BBQ pit and serving take-out meals from the pavilion. Unfortunately, we have since learned that the 2022 Festival has been cancelled as well. So, on to 2023 with hopes for the successful resumption of both events. Stay tuned...
