Serving at the altar is a special privilege. Altar Servers are close to the altar as they serve the priest, they carry the cross, and they carry the light of Christ as the Gospel is proclaimed. Our young altar servers wear the robe of baptism (the alb), which is a sign of their position in the community as baptized people. They hold the book of the prayers (the Roman Missal), and they help the priest at the altar.

​

The privilege of serving on the altar is open to all parish boys, girls and adults who have received their 
First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.
