St. David's Episcopal Church -- Spokane, Washington

Chalice bearers

With a core group of about 15 dedicated parishioners, St. Davids' chalice bearers are a vital part of our worship services. Every Sunday two chalice bearers serve at each of the 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM services. They also serve at the special holiday worship services.

Chalice bearers distribute blessed wine to the congregation during Holy Communion. One of them at each service reads the Prayers of the People aloud. At the 8:00 AM Sunday services, and during other services when acolytes are absent, they also perform the acolytes' usual duties.

A schedule is issued every 3 months, and volunteers are responsible for any swaps that need to be made and for notifying the church office. New members are added at the Rector's discretion.

If you would like to be a chalice bearer, call the church office or send an e-mail message.
