Servers
An acolyte is also known as an altar server. As an acolyte, you are contributing to the worship life of our church and are, thus, a leader in worship. As an acolyte, you sing, participate, and look and act your best to give glory to God and to honor all those who worship with you.
Acolytes carry the cross, torches, gospel, and sometimes banners during the procession. They assist the priest with setting the table for communion or Eucharist. Acolytes receive the collections from the ushers and are responsible for the candles. They also may be called upon for special duties during the Christmas and Easter holidays.
The beauty of being an acolyte is that anyone can help serve God. While acolytes are usually thought of as being young men and women, any responsible person willing to sacrifice a little time can train to be an acolyte.
