Altar Server Protocols
- All Servers will arrive at the Church 30mins before Mass is to begin. You will get dressed, pray the “ Altar Server Prayer” which will be posted. Assist the Priest or Deacon in Mass preparation.
- Shoes will be all black. They can be any style ( boots, oxfords, tennis shoes) but, no insignias, all black.
- Male and Female Servers will wear black slacks. (No Exceptions)
- Excessive tardiness (always 10 to 15 minutes late) will cause you to be removed from the Schedule.
- There may be times when prior commitments or emergencies cause a conflict with the Masses you are scheduled to serve at. GET A SUBSTITUTE!!! The Server Directory provides everyone’s E-Mail and phone numbers. This YOUR responsibility, not your Parents or mine. Miss a Mass you are scheduled for without finding a substitute will cause you to be removed from the Schedule. If you have an unsolvable conflict contact me directly. However, contact me only AFTER you have
tried everyone else.
- Serving Mass is a Privilege not a Right. By attending the training sessions and answering the call of the Holy Spirit and the Church, you are in a “Special” category. The Church, the Parish, the Priest and your fellow Servers are counting on you. Take this commitment seriously.
