Today we visited the church to learn about people who help us in the church.
Sandy told us about the flower guild who organise and arrange the flowers. The cleaning guild are volunteers who vacuum and dust the church. They use an enormous long feathery duster to reach the top parts. There are brass cleaners to make the brass items super shiny. Outside there are bell ringers in the tower for weddings, funerals. The choir sing at a Sunday service and the organist plays the organ. They have rotas for everything, kitchen, coffee. Church wardens make sure all the fabric in the church is in order. They also have grass cutters and volunteer gardeners. Sacriston are in charge of silver and linen.
Sandy and Helen are priests. Other names are ministers or clergy. They lead services in the church.
