"To be Christ's server at the altar, to serve Him freely there...this is to stand where even the Angels falter, bowed low in reverent prayer.  To touch the throne most holy, to hand the gifts for the feast, to see Him meekly, lowly, descend at the word of the priest."

-- St. John Bosco, describing the Altar Server
 

BECOMING AN ATLAR SERVER AT ST. STEPHEN

Any student who is a parishioner of St. Stephen and has made their First Holy Communion is able to begin serving at God's Altar.  Trainings are held each year, and new servers may also be trained as aprentices by other altar servers.  Contact the parish office for more details at (985)385-1280 or speak to Father Istre after any Mass.
