Parish altar servers assist with the celebration of the Liturgy. These young volunteers assist the celebrant during the Liturgy itself and make sure everything is put away once it is concluded.
More importantly, altar servers are afforded the opportunity to participate in the liturgical life of our parish in a meaningful way, giving praise and thanks to God for all He has done for them.
Training for altar servers takes place at various times during the church year here in our parish. It is open to boys and girls of the parish who have received their First Holy Communion
A Server’s Prayer
Loving Father, creator of the universe,
You call your people to worship,
To be with you and one another at Mass.
I thank you for having called me
To assist others in their prayer to you.
May I be worthy of the trust placed in me
And through my example and service
Bring others closer to you.
I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ,
Who is Lord forever and ever. Amen.
