The guild is a volunteer group whose ministry is to care for the altar, vestments, vessels, and altar linens of the parish. Altar Guild members prepare the sanctuary for services, and clean up afterwards. They supervise the decoration of the sanctuary of the parish with flowers.

The committee is responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of Memorial Garden and Columbarium. The columbarium consists of walls containing niches where people’s ashes are immured. The garden has a collection of trees, shrubs and perennials, including Washington Irving Ivy, a direct descendent of ivy grown at the author’s home, Sunnyside, and given by Irving to the Reverend Franklin Babbitt, first rector of Grace Episcopal Church. Another notable specimen is an oak tree planted in honor of victims of 9/11.
