About Altar Servers

Assist the priest and deacon at Mass and other liturgical celebrations. Altar servers carry the cross and candles, hold the missal, prepare the altar, and help bring up the gifts. Their care adds to the reverence and beauty of our liturgies. Open to anyone aged 10 or older (grade 5 and up) who is able to receive the Eucharist.
