CHURCH WOMEN (ECW)
ECW is a fellowship for ALL women of the Church and is organized to enable the women to serve the Lord through service, worship, education, evangelism and pastoral care.  The group meets monthly on the third Tuesday at 6 pm.  For more information, contact Elaine Hunter at 936.632.8745.

BREAKFAST TEAMS
Each Sunday a group of men prepares breakfast which is served immediately following the 7:30 am service (at about 8:15 am).  Men work in teams that serve about once every five weeks.  For more information or to volunteer, contact the Church office at 936.639.1253.

FUNERAL TEAMS - Last fall the Vestry organized itself into teams to provide coverage at church funerals.  Now that we have a better understanding of how someone on a funeral team can serve, we are seeking members of the parish to step up and volunteer! We are hoping to have four teams, with each serving a 3-month rotation annually.  Members of the team are asked to assist in the Narthex with greeting church visitors, providing directions to restrooms, seating and other needs prior to, during and after the worship service.  Services are held between the hours of 10:00 a.m and 4:00 p.m.  If you're interested in volunteering, please contact the church office at 936.639.1253 or office@stcyprianschurch.org.

YARD TEAMS
The Parish grounds are maintained by a loyal group of men, women and teens who work in teams to care for them.  Special workdays are held twice annually. For more information or to volunteer, call Chuck Moore at 936.824.2548.

COFFEE HOSTS
Each Sunday following the 11 am service, refreshments are provided in the Parish Hall or Courtyard—depending on the weather.  Teams set up the coffee and cookies.  For more information or to volunteer, contact Betty Preston at 936.634.6086.

USHERS
Open to all members of St. Cyprian’s, ushers welcome and help to seat visitors and assist in ensuring the worship services run smoothly.  For more information or to volunteer, contact Randy Blanks at 936.639.1369.

LECTORS 
Men and women with the gift of communication read the daily scripture lessons at the worship services.  

EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS
Like Lectors, Eucharistic ministers read a portion of the daily scripture lessons to the congregation.  They also lead the Prayers of the People and administer the chalice at communion.  

GALLERY CHOIR
A group of men and women sings weekly at the 10 am worship service.  The choir meets at 9 am Sunday to prepare for the service.  

ACOLYTES
Acolytes serve faithfully in the worship service in a variety of capacities, including cross bearers, flag bearers and torch bearers.  The master cross bearer also helps to prepare the table for Holy Communion.  Anyone from fourth grade through adult is invited to participate.  Acolytes are assigned to teams and serve monthly.  For more information, contact Carol Riley at 936.637.6991.

ANGEL CHOIR
Open to all children in first through eighth grades, the Angel Choir sings at the 10 am worship service at different times throughout the year.  Rehearsals are held weekly following the 10 a.m. service.  For more information, contact Diana Hineman at 936.632.6453.

FEAST (Friends, Eating and Socializing Together)
