A Workbook for Altar Servers is an engaging and informative resource that walks altar servers step-by-step through their vital liturgical ministry. This workbook includes helpful activities and questions that encourage new servers (ages 8 to 11) to remember their tasks before Mass, during each of the four parts of the Mass, and after Mass.
This workbook includes:
‣ Age-appropriate reflections on serving
‣ Tips and reminders for best serving practices
‣ Instructive illustrations to help children visualize how to have good posture, hold their hands, kneel, and hold vessels and ritual books, as well as other tasks
‣ Fill-in-the-blank questions and other activities
‣ Opportunities for drawing and writing prayers
‣ Supplemental material on serving at other liturgies (baptisms, weddings, funerals, and so on)
‣ Glossary with definitions of terms related to the Mass and serving
‣ Prayer for servers
Intended to be given to children after their initial training, this interactive workbook will also help parents become more actively involved in their child’s ministerial training—ensuring that their child is ready to serve and helping answer questions as their child carries out this important ministry.
Equip and engage your altar servers with the knowledge and encouragement they need to serve in their role. With A Workbook for Altar Servers, you will form a confident, reverent, and reliable team of young ministers who love the liturgy and serve at the altar with joy.
