Altar Servers
Welcome to Sts. Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church Altar Servers.
Serving on the Altar is both every boy’s duty to their church as well as a privilege. Altar boys assist Father Michael and other clergy during services and get the opportunity to learn more about the Divine Liturgy.
Our altar boys range in age from 8-adult. The boys depart from the traditional Sunday school curriculum to partake of our altar boy program. Through active participation in the Divine Liturgy on Sundays and holidays, the program instructs the boys on the meaning of the Divine Liturgy, other services, and the fundamental sacraments of the church.
Prior to participating in the Divine Liturgy, the altar boys meet with Fr. Sitaras to review elements of the Divine Liturgy. Primarily, the altar boys will focus on the day’s Gospel lesson or epistle reading and interpreting its meaning and relevance to their lives. Upon concluding their lesson, the altar boys ascend to the altar and assist with the Divine Liturgy.
We are currently looking for new Altar boys to join us on the Altar to participate in this spiritual experience.
If you are a boy that is 8 years old or older and have been baptized in the Greek Orthodox faith, and are interested in serving in the Altar please contact us.
