ATTN: Any child who has received the sacrament of First Holy Communion

Does your child love to volunteer and could benefit from earning volunteer hours? Do they love working together as a team? Do they long for a special role at the altar to help our parish?

We would LOVE for your child to become an Altar Server!!!

Our next training will be announced soon. 

Attached is a registration form if you would like to sign your child up to become an altar server.  If you would like to bring your child to the training to see what it’s like, registration forms will be available on training day, so you don’t need to fill anything out beforehand, if that’s easier for you.

If you have any questions, please reach out to our Altar Server Ministry Leaders, Tim Nichols or Todd Hoffman, by calling our main number at (561) 746-7974.

We truly hope to see your children serve at the altar of our Lord.  God bless you all!
