On Friday the 20th of May, two of our Altar Servers were admitted into the Guild of St Stephen.
The objectives of the Guild
* To encourage, positively and practically, the highest standards of serving at the Church’s liturgy and so contribute to the whole community’s participation in a more fruitful worship of God.
* To provide altar servers with a greater understanding of what they are doing so that they may serve with increasing reverence and prayerfulness and thereby be led to a deepening response to their vocation in life.
* To unite servers of different parishes and dioceses for their mutual support and encouragement.
96 Altar Servers from around the Melbourne Archdiocese, together with their family and friends attended this celebration and it was encouraging to see so many young people being making a committment to serve in this Ministry. We thank Daniella and Daniella for their service to our Parish and we pray that God continues to guide and bless them on their faith journey.
