Altar Servers

Altar Servers are part of a very ancient tradition in the liturgical life of the church.

The ministry of altar server in the Catholic Church is very unique, other than the priest and deacons; no one else has the opportunity to participate so closely in the preparation of the Eucharist.  At Good Shepherd, altar servers are chosen from those young men and women who display a desire for an intimate union with our Lord. Everything they do is a witness to their love of Jesus in the celebration of the Mass.  Great care is taken to instruct each server on how to perform all duties and responsibilities with dignity and reverence. 

We welcome children to join the altar server ministry who have received the Sacrament of Holy Communion.  If your child meets this requirement and you would like to register them as a new altar server please CLICK HERE

Training sessions are currently led by Father Jacob Jaks and will be announced here, in the Parish bulletin, and/or through email to those that have registered using the link above.
