North Plains, OR
This fall I will be training current 4th graders as well as any older students who are interested in
the ministry of altar servers for weekend Masses.
During this training not only are the children going to learn how to be an altar server, but they
also learn the proper or formal names of the items used in the sanctuary and sacristy of the
church.
The training sessions will be offered after the 9:15am Sunday Mass on the following dates 9/21,
9/28, 10/12, 10/19, 10/26, 11/2, and 11/9.
Your child must be a baptized Catholic who has received the sacraments of First Reconciliation
and Eucharist in order to serve Mass. Please mark your choice below of availability to serve and
return this form by September 17, 2025 to the parish office or email it to
meeuwsenbrian@gmail.com.

Once the sessions have been completed, your child will be added to the Altar Server Schedule
and will be assigned along with an older server unless the child has an older sibling who has
been trained. The expectation is that servers arrive at least 15 minutes prior to Mass, or Father
will find a substitute. Leah Nussbaumer does the scheduling for the altar servers. Please contact
her at leahnussbaumer@msn.com or 503-809-6352 if your schedule changes and you need to
change your child’s availability.
Finally, SA VE THE DATE, Sunday, November 16, 2025 at the 9:15am all new altar servers will
be commissioned and receive their personalized cross.
