Becoming an Altar Server at SHPS
Altar serving is a special way for students to actively participate in the Mass, grow in their faith, and serve our parish community. It helps them better understand the structure and meaning of the liturgy while fostering a sense of responsibility, leadership, and reverence. Most importantly, it allows students to answer God’s call to serve and grow closer to Him through their actions.
Students in grades 3–8 who have made their First Communion are eligible to become altar servers. They are trained through our parish and then are ready to serve at both parish and school Masses.
