Altar Servers assist the priest with sincere devotion and decorum in the spirit of the liturgy.
How the Ministry Works:- New Altar Servers attend an initial training program of two 2-hour sessions on their role, the objects used in the celebration of the liturgy, and familiarity with the structure of the Mass.
- Servers submit Mass preference information and dates of unavailability for each schedule period as requested by the Liturgy & Music office.
- On average, Altar Servers are scheduled once or twice a month, depending on Mass preference and number of others available for the same Mass(es).
Expectations:- This ministry is open to adults and students in grade 6 or higher.
- Altar servers must dress appropriately.
- Servers should arrive at Mass at least 15 minutes early and stay after Mass to complete other assigned responsibilities.
