Altar Server Ministry

Are you looking for a way:

to make the Mass more meaningful?

to serve your Lord?

to see the Mass from a whole different perspective?

Become an altar server!

Servers can be children or adults, male or female, (even a whole family). Children who serve without an adult must be at least 8 years old, have celebrated their First Eucharist, and commit to attend Mass regularly.

Please contact Jaime Paredes at:
