Altar Server Ministry
An Altar Server Ministry is open to those in fourth grade or older interested in assisting the priest throughout the Mass. Participation includes carrying the cross or torches in the entrance processional, holding the Roman Missal for prayers, and assisting in preparations for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Boys and girls who have made their First Communion and are in the fourth grade or older are encouraged to become altar servers. Adult altar servers are needed for the morning Masses held in the church and select funerals.
