MINISTRIES
No matter who you are or where you come from, chances are Emmanuel has a ministry that could use your talents. Whether you like to arrange flowers, organize our Christmas tree decorating event, outreach with others in our community, become an usher, or provide pastoral care for those in need, we have an abundance of ministry opportunities that we welcome you to explore.
In any area you choose, we believe all of our ministries work in one way or another to live up to our mission to glorify God with our lives and create a world of justice and peace for all people.
​
If are interested in participating to serve God and our community, please contact our office at (540) 434-2357 or send email to our office and we'll be glad to put you in touch with one or more of our committee leaders for more detailed information. We invite you to bring your ideas and become involved in serving in any capacity.

Some of the many ministries we have at Emmanuel include:
​​
Pastoral Care (visiting members who are not able to attend services and supporting our parish family in prayer)
​
Church Choir and Music (all are welcome to join our choir - we practice on Thursday evenings and sing at our 10:30 service each Sunday)
​
Fellowship (meet and greet, arrange receptions of celebration and mourning, coordinate activities such as church picnics and potluck meals)
​
Lay Eucharistic Ministers, Visitors, and Readers (assist the priest in offering communion, bring pre-consecrated bread and wine to home bound parishioners, read lessons during church services)
​
Community Outreach (organize the annual Angel Tree project, support Open Doors, participate in activities sponsored by other churches)
