It's All About Worship

Worship at FCUCC is vibrant and uplifting! There are many ways to participate in worship on a weekly or monthly basis, or on special occasions. Please contact admin@uccasheville.org to inquire about how to get involved!

We meet monthly and assist the pastor with worship service planning for the upcoming seasons in the church calendar.  Anyone who is interested in and has ideas for worship, is welcome to join the team!   Contact Bev Reddick.

Liturgists
Liturgists assist in worship by reading portions of the service: Call to Worship, Scripture and Prayer or Dedication.  Different people serve as liturgists each Sunday and may serve 2-3 times per year.   To volunteer, please contact Sandy Clark.
Communion: Preparers & Servers
Communion is served on the first Sunday of each month.  Two people prepare the elements.  Four laity serve communion during worship.
Flowers
