"Do not let anyone look down

on you because of your youth,

but set an example for

the believers in your actions,

in your love and purity."

Altar Servers
Altar Servers are members of the assembly who assist the priest during the Eucharist and other liturgical ceremonies so the liturgy can be conducted with grace and reverence. They ensure that all the requisites for the celebration are available at the appropriate time. Boys and girls aspiring to be servers must be in the 5th grade or older. They must be baptized and have received First Holy Communion. Candidates receive mandatory training; service is scheduled on a rotating basis.

Mission Trip

 

Each summer upcoming freshmen through graduated seniors in high school travel to other cities for a weeklong service project. Teens from parishes across the country are brought together in projects ranging from small household repairs (painting), working with underprivileged children and food pantries. The mission trip is not only about service. Leaders encourage youth to grow in their faith and fellowship with members of their own parish as well as other parishes. Youth are expected to participate in fund-raising events throughout the year, including a pasta dinner, bake sales and a carwash.
