All confirmed young people at St. John’s in grades 7-12 are invited serve as acolytes. After being trained by the Rector, acolytes serve in various roles during Sunday morning worship, and at other services as requested. Each year a few senior acolytes are chosen to serve as Acolyte Captains, leading the acolyte team each Sunday, assisting the Rector in training, and giving guidance to the younger acolytes.
