Altar Servers
Our altar servers (acolytes) have brought humbleness and dignity to the sanctuary in their service to the Lord. During the liturgy, their assistance is vital to the flow of the Mass. They provide an atmosphere of comfort and familiarity for the congregation and the celebrant. One of the special gifts of the acolyte is being near the altar of God and the Holy Eucharist. This special entrance into the Holy of Holies, once reserved for the high priest alone, is now shared with his acolytes. Both men and women, boys and girls are allowed to serve in this distinct ministry.
