At Saint Nicholas we recognize that the children and youth of our parish represent the future of our church.  Our priority is to offer programs that help children and youth come to know God in a deeper way, to encourage fun in fellowship with one another and to provide opportunities for fun and outreach.

MINISTRY OF ACOLYTES

The word Acolyte means “attendant: or “one who helps”.  Acolytes have assisted with the worship service since the early Christian Church.  Some say that acolytes have a long history – that Samuel, who assisted Eli in the Old Testament Temple, was really the first acolyte.  Acolytes can be male or female of any age and the duties include:  +Boat Boys/Girls – who carry the unlit incense in the incense boat. +Crucifers – who carry the processional crosses. + Flag and Banner Bearers – who carry the flags and banners. +Torch Bearers – who carry the lit torches as a symbol of the Light of Christ. +Thurifers – who carry the censer with burning incense.  +Vergers – who act as the master of ceremonies in the liturgy.  If you are interested in this important and sacred ministry, please contact the Church office at 953-942-5887.
