They may also serve during other sacramental occasions such as: funerals, weddings, Stations of the Cross, Adoration and Benediction, Confirmation and Liturgical Processions.
Children and Teens who have received First Eucharist are eligible.

Becoming an Altar Server is an amazing way for our youth to get actively involved at St. Mark!
Altar Server instructions:
It is IMPORTANT that you arrive 20 MINUTES before mass. When attending a Mass, always check to see if you may be needed to serve.
Hang up your cassock and surplice neatly when mass is over by buttoning the top snap of the cassock and hanging the cassock and surplice in the proper place based on size .
Kindly arrange to get a substitute if you can’t serve at your assigned mass.
