We are very fortunate that we have a loyal and committed
group of servers who can be relied on to give a regular and
dignified service to the Parishes in the Pastoral Area. The
age range of the servers ranges from those who have recently
made their First Holy Communion to adults.
Anyone, boy or girl man or woman, who has made their
First Holy Communion, is eligible to be a server and we are
always more than happy to welcome more to this most
important ministry in our Parish.
The servers not only give regular commitment to the
Sunday masses, but are also willing to come and serve on
other occasions such as the Easter Services and First Holy
Communion masses.
The younger servers who serve regularly give witness to
not only their peers, but also to younger children in the
Parish.
If you would like more information or request to
become a server, please contact the Parish Office.
Guild of St Stephen
The aim of the Guild of Saint Stephen is to
encourage servers to practice the highest standards of
serving at the Church’s liturgy and so contribute to the
whole community’s participation in a more fruitful worship
of God. It also provides altar servers with a greater
understanding of what they are doing so that they may serve
with dignity and reverence.
The Guild has recently been setup in our Parish and
membership is open to any server male or female, without
limit of age, who can serve Mass, and has completed a
minimum of six months regular and dignified service.
Enrolment takes place at a special service during a Mass.
