Altar Servers for Mass

The role of Altar Server is integral to the normal celebration of the Mass. Altar serving offers young people of our parish the opportunity to grow in their faith and actively participate in assisting our priests at the celebration of the Mass. This Altar Serving ministry is open to all boys and girls of San Antonio de Padua parish who are in the 6th grade or above. Altar servers must have already received the Sacrament of Holy Communion, attend scheduled training sessions, and be available on a regular basis to serve at Mass.
