New Acolytes

 Olivia has reached the age where she is old enough to serve as acolyte in church.  February was her first month.  She did a great job.  Her jobs include lighting the candle at the beginning and extinguishing it at the end of the service.  Later in the year she'll start assisting with communion.


Acolyte training took place in January.  Owen and I were just going to sit and wait while Olivia completed the training. Since we were there anyway, the preacher said the Owen could go ahead a be trained.  So, Owen is now an acolyte as well.  His first week of service was last week.  Like Olivia, he did a great job.  He got a little upset toward the end because he had to sit on the front pew by himself, but he pulled it together and made it through.
