Worship Committee and Ministries in Portland, Maine

The Worship Committee is responsible for creating or sponsoring one service a month during the regular church year (September-June). This may involve sponsoring another group within the church to put on a service, such as the Social Action Committee or Senior Youth Group.

At other times, the members of the Worship Committee have a great deal of fun designing, planning, and presenting a service, which includes finding or creating readings, choosing hymns, coordinating with the Music Director, and creating an order of service. During the summer, the committee is also responsible for coordinating lay-led services and ensuring that all Sunday slots are filled.
