Close to the altar
Serving the Lord with gladness
Altar servers have a special place in the worship of the Church. By assisting the priest during the Holy Qurbana and other celebrations, they help the whole community pray with dignity and devotion.
At St. Euphrasia Parish, children who have received their First Holy Communion are welcome to join. Through training and regular service, they grow in their love for the Eucharist and in their understanding of our Syro-Malabar liturgy.
