Would you like to be an Altar Server?
Do you feel the Holy Spirit calling you to try something new? Are you in 5th – 9th grade, and interested in learning more about the Mass? Can you arrive 15 minutes before Mass, and serve reverently at the altar?
Our altar servers are young people wishing to be part of a team that works together for an orderly and prayerful celebration of Mass. Therefore, regular attendance at Sunday Mass is an important element and an expectation. Altar serving should be a joyful experience, and can draw both the server and their family into a deeper experience of their faith. Servers should plan to serve at least once a month.
A server must be in the fifth grade or older and will be trained in the liturgy. If you are interested in serving, click the Server Commitment button below to complete the online form. The mass preferences are NOT a sign-up for any specific Mass, but simply inquiring about availability.
Training will be in small groups and will take place during the school day for SJA students, and after the 10:30am Mass on Sunday (or as arranged) for students from other schools. You will be contacted as the sessions are scheduled.
We are grateful for your service to this ministry as an altar server and look forward to working with you.
If you have any questions regarding altar servers, please contact Tricia Kane at [email protected] or the parish office at 847-673-0409.
