Altar Servers
Altar Servers are young people who assist the priest and deacon during Mass. While assisting at the weekend Masses and other liturgical celebrations, it is important that servers be active participants in the liturgy and that they listen, sing, and pray with the entire assembly.
Boys and girls who have received their first communion and are in the 4th grade are invited to become Altar Servers. Learn more.

This very special prayer has been requested by Our Blessed Mother for peace in the world and conversion of all people to Her Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ. The Rosary is a series of meditations (mysteries) built around the life, death, and Resurrection of Christ and the Church’s teachings regarding His mother. We begin the Rosary 25 minutes before most Masses.
