Altar Servers 
 
  Altar Servers have been serving Mass from the earliest centuries.  
The role of the Altar Server is to assist the priest in the celebration of the liturgy during Mass. This ministry of assistance at the Holy Altar of the Lord is open to young boys and girls ages 10-18 (grades 5-12). Altar Servers are assigned to assist the clergy at Sunday Mass, Holy days, wedding and funeral litergies.
Responsibilities of Altar Servers include:
  • Bearing the cross in entrance procession
  • Bearing the candles in entrance procession
  • Assisting with holy water, water, wine and offertory gifts at Mass
  • Bearing the cross in recessional procession
Serving at the altar is a big responsibility. The clergy count on your mature attitude while serving, expect you to arrive on-time, and appreciate a reverent attitude in all that you do. If you feel that you would like to serve the Church by being an Altar Server, please contact the church office or one of the Servant Leaders listed below.  

The schedule for Altar Servers can be found on the Calendars page.
