We would like to invite any student in grades 3 thru 12 to consider serving at the altar of God. The role of an altar server is very important. Not only do you assist the priest at Mass, but more importantly serve the Lord in a very special way. If you would like to be trained to serve at the altar we invite your parents to submit the form located on this page or contact the parish office at 717-624-4121. Please check if you are a new server or a returning server. Once we have your names we will send out a notice in regards to training.
Because this is usually the first opportunity for our young people to serve in the Church, Father prefers having our young people serve at Mass. Young people serving the Church is a sign of HOPE! Adult servers as mentioned below assist Father only when our young people are not available because of school or other reasons.
Thank you for considering this important ministry. Parents, we thank you as well for the commit you make by allowing your children to serve the Church in this very important capacity. Please know you and your families are in our thoughts and prayers!
In addition to our children who serve at the altar, we also have a core team of adults who assist Father when the younger servers are not available. This might include daily Mass, Sunday Mass when our young people are not available, for funerals during the week. If you are interested in being trained to serve on these occassions when necessary please contact George Bondra at 717-624-1050 or fill out the information above.
