Ministry of Altar Server is an excellent way to learn discipline, accountability, and teamwork. It is also an opportunity to participate in the very important liturgies of the Church. Altar Servers form one of the liturgical ministries of the Parish – boys and girls (4th grade and older), men and women – who have very specific tasks to perform during liturgies. There is a brief training period in preparation for service at the Lord’s Table and more experience is gained as the senior server continues to guide the newcomers.
Altar servers are grouped in teams. They receive in mail with a bimonthly schedule in order to know when they are to serve. When they come to serve Mass, they also sign into the attendance chart which is posted in the sacristy.
