Guild of St. Stephen - Altar Servers

I began serving at the age of 9. Five years later I am working as a senior server alongside Colin, Paul, Ian and many other dedicated members of the guild. I like all others have started at the bottom and worked my way up. I remember dropping the incense and tripping over my own alb. I now regularly attend either the 6.30 or 8.30 masses and usually carrying the cross or the thurable. My current position now allows me to prevent others making the same mistakes as I did and try to help them to rise their serving standards. Our family now has the next generation of altar servers with my sister having just joined Colin's winter training program. I enjoy serving because it allows me to take an active part in the mass and serve god as well as his parish. I hope to serve for many years to come and will enjoy seeing the new servers join each year.
