These three roles are an important part of every worship service. A Greeter or Usher welcomes everyone to Sunday service, provides bulletins, assists with seating if needed, updates our “Who’s Here” list and is the first “Face” of our Church to visitors. Ushers also bring the offering forward during the service and help guide people to communion. An Acolyte carries the Light of Christ into the worship service during the prelude and carries the flame during the final Hymn to signify our taking the Light of Christ out into the World.
To volunteer to be part of this Worship support, use the signup sheet in the back of the Church and we ask you commit to a month of service. You will be trained and there will be at least one other person doing this with you.
Music is an important part of our worship services. From September through May, the Church Choir sings anthems and hymns that support the worship text or season of the service. We have an Easter and a Christmas Cantata during the year with singers who join with us for the special music. Soloists and special music are presented during the summer months.
Speak to the Choir Director or a Choir member if you are interested in being a part of this music ministry. All adult singers of all ability, skill, and experience levels are welcome. The Choir practices in the Sanctuary 4:00-5;00 PM on Thursdays and 10:30 AM each Sunday before Worship in the active choir months.
All are welcome to this Ministry of Care and Fellowship. The team sends greeting cards to members and friends of Holly Springs UMC in times of celebrations, illness, or loss. The cards are carefully chosen for each situation to assure people they are welcomed and deeply cared and prayed for by our Church Family.
The team meets on Monday mornings at 11:00.
Holly Springs United Methodist Women has a rich history of supporting the mission of the church and of promoting a warm, caring community of women that strengthens each individual as well as the church as a whole.
Ways to be Involved: Planning meetings are held on the second Monday of each month in the Church Fellowship Hall at 11:00 A.M. For those unable to attend, discuss your input, comments, and ideas with any member to take to the meeting on your behalf. Many events will have signup sheets or a contact person for you to register event participation and/or food & supplies. The Newsletter email list will be used to send requests for volunteers for special projects such as decorating or set-up for events.
We are a church that believes in working together in fellowship to take care of where we worship. This often takes the form of special Work Clean Up Days or landscaping or maintenance projects that are planned by the Trustee Committee and volunteers.
These projects have included clearing out the back lot of the church, planting daffodil bulbs along the back hill, and planning the construction of a new side garden.
