Our faith community can be nourished by active participation in parish groups that meet for prayer, social action, Sacramental preparation, youth work and the support of others in the life the Church. To share our lives in these ways allows us to offer ourselves and draw strength from each other.
Guild of St Stephen
Young people, minimum age 7, who wish to serve the parish as an altar server are welcome to join our group of altar servers.
Through their service assisting the priest and the parish community they ensure liturgical services run smoothly enabling prayerful and fitting worship.
They serve the liturgical life of the parish by assisting at mass, benediction, processions, weddings and funerals.
For servers themselves it is a wonderful opportunity to deepen their knowledge of the mass and their faith.
If you wish to join our servers please after mass approach the parish priest, Fr John, or our Master of Ceremonies, Michael O’Leary.
