Altar Servers
CONTACTS:   John & Marcie Meler at 383-7215

Altar Servers assist the priest and deacon during Mass and therefore are part of making Mass a more reverent and prayerful experience for everyone.

The Altar Server Ministry is open to young people in fifth grade and older who have made their First Holy Communion. Altar Servers are encouraged to continue through their high school years.

Training opportunities happen in late August.

Staying sharp and learning your duties:
It should be every Altar Server's goal to know his / her duties at Mass without prompting.  It takes everyone some time and effort when you are new. It is helpful is to review the material that you received at training.  It would be a good idea to reveiew this over if you find that you need reminders from Father or another Server, or if you are just feeling unsure and would like to refresh your memory. If you need another copy of your alter serving materials, please contact John or Marcie.

Servers & Parents Please Note:
Altar Servers are to report to the sacristy 15 minutes before the beginning of Mass.

Regarding finding substitutes:
If you are unable to serve when scheduled, we appreciate that you find a substitute in a timely manner.  Use the monthly alter server schedule to identify others who serve the same Mass time.  Use the phone list to contact others about substituting for you or swapping assignments.  

Thank you for your involvement and commitment to this ministry!
