Assisting In The Eucharist At St. Peter’s Episcopal Church

20160117_120859(0)

Today at church I assisted with the Eucharist/Communion at church for the first time since I have been at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church. This is me in an alb which is a liturgical vestment that is worn in many churches for the clergy as well as those assisting in the Mass/worship. I am holding a chalice with real wine that we use each week in worship. I love doing this sort of thing at church because it brings me closer to Christ to help others in such a way.

Happy Sunday Good People

I hope you all have a great day. May God bless and keep you today. Have fun in whatever you are up to today. Grace and peace y’all.
