After receiving First Communion, any Catholic in good standing with the parish can ask to become an altar server. 

While most people think of servers as the youth of the parish, we also encourage adults to become servers. Youth are often not available for weekday services or funerals. Adults may have more flexible schedules!

Training happens in several ways:

• A deacon can lead a prospective server 
• Experienced servers can mentor new servers
• And now we offer training videos below
• And any combination of the above can be used

 

St. Mary's Cathedral Training 

Notre Dame Training

Further information is available in this Altar Server Formation PowerPoint presentation.

If you have any further questions or want to be a server, talk to one of the priests or deacons or call the parish office at 315-393-3930 or 315-393-5050.
