We welcome boys and girls who have made their First Communion to consider becoming an altar server. Parents, your child may feel a calling from the Lord to become an altar server.

his ministry is open to boys and girls. Altar servers serve at all weekend liturgies and special celebrations throughout the year, such as weekday morning masses, funerals, and memorial masses. The various tasks of an altar server usually include assisting with the book of prayers when the Presider reads from it, carrying various objects in procession, such as the processional cross and candles, and perhaps assist in cleaning up after Mass. The main task of the server is to model liturgical prayer with grace and reverence and enter wholeheartedly into the public worship of the community. Altar servers are expected to be familiar with the ebb and flow of liturgy, to anticipate each movement, cue, and need. Altar server training sessions are offered throughout the year with the expectation of regular attendance.

St. Lucy’s has 4 masses every Sunday, 2 masses in English and 2 masses in Spanish. Altar servers are needed at each of these masses.
