Altar Servers play a most important part in the liturgy of the Parish. Without them the Church would find it difficult to conduct its worship with dignity. Good servers enable all of us, priests and people, to celebrate the Mass and the other sacraments with a spirit of prayer. This means that Altar Servers themselves have to be prayerful people and also people who are aware of the tremendous gifts God gives us in the liturgy.
Young men and women are invited to perform this role at St Thomas of Canterbury. In the absence of enough servers of this age, even younger girls and boys are encouraged to serve from after their first Holy Communion.
The intention is always, not only to guide them in the correct way of serving, but also to encourage a deeper understanding of what we are really doing when we come together to worship God. Our aim is to have a reverent and dignified liturgy assisted by devout and well trained Altar Servers.
