ACOLYTE (SERVER)

Acolyte means “one who serves”.  Servers assist the priest at God's Table and the congregation throughout the Mass. They proclaim the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ's love by leading through an example of dignity and reverence.  Servers are instrumental in helping the services to run smoothly. They are leaders in the church through the examples they set at the altar. Thank you for using your talents to serve Christ and the Church.

AN ALTAR SERVER'S PRAYER

Loving Father, creator of the universe,
You call Your people to worship,
to be with You and one another at Mass.
I thank You for having called me
to assist others in their prayer to You.
May I be worthy of the trust placed in me
and through my example and service
bring others closer to You.
I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ,
Who is Lord forever and ever. Amen.
