ALTAR SERVERS SCHEDULE |
|
 |
The primary
role of the altar server is to assist the
priest in the celebration of the liturgy
during Mass. This is done through
specific actions and by setting an example
to the congregation by active participation
in the liturgy (hymns, responses, etc.),
by 'looking alert' and by sitting or standing
at the appropriate times.
If you
cannot serve at the Mass you are scheduled
for, please, find a substitute! If
all else fails, please call the Rectory to
let us know. Thank you for all
you do to make Mass so beautiful!
Please
encourage your friends to join you in being
an Altar Server at Mass!

| FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS |
WHAT DO WE DO?
Altar servers assist the Priest in the celebration
of the Mass so the liturgy can be conducted
with grace and reverence. We assist the celebrant
at the chair and at the altar by setting
the altar, lighting the candles, carrying
the processional cross, carrying the incense,
holding the books, and a variety of other
tasks during the service. We do this by performing
our duties with honor and respect, reflecting
the true presence of Christ at the Mass.
This ministry helps to develop a sense of
participation in parish life and a love for
the church's liturgical life, while growing
closer to God in one's own life. It also
offers an opportunity to understand the rewards
of service toward others and their community.
|
|
WHEN DO WE DO IT?
The Altar Servers assist primarily at weekend
and Holy Day Masses. We occasionally serve
at weddings, funerals, missions, and other
special liturgies.
|
|
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?
The ministry is open to all interested students
- male or female - 4 - 8 and high school
age, who would like to help enhance the worship
of our faith community.

PRAYER FOR AN ALTAR SERVER
O God, You have graciously called me
to serve You upon Your altar.
Grant me the graces that I need
to serve You faithfully and wholeheartedly.
Grant too that while serving You,
may I follow the examples of St. Tarcisius,
who died protecting the Eucharist,
and walk the same path that led him to Heaven.
