Serving in the altar is a wonderful way for our young people to participate in the worship of our church, and learn more about our faith. For the present school year, we are very pleased to announce the altar leaders program! This year, three of the older altar servers have taken on the responsibility of coordinating the groups during services each week. We hope to add several more to their ranks in the coming years!
If any families are interested in their boys joining an altar group, who are above the age of 10, feel free to contact Father Stephen at This email address is being protected from spambots.

Don’t see your name here? Would you like to join us? We would like you to. Report for altar duty any Sunday morning, prior to 10:30 a.m., and Nektarios will make the appropriate arrangements. Meanwhile, it is also imperative that you attend Sunday School. Ecclesiarch Nektarios notes: We have two Permanent Leaders in the Altar, and they are Nathan Tesfai and Michalis Kamenis. We anticipate a maximum of six additional servers in the Altar; any more than six will need to attend Sunday School. Altar servers are required to be vested and ready to serve by 10:30 a.m. Late comers will need to attend Sunday Schoool if they cannot arrive early enough to serve.
Interested in forming a group of girl altar servers, beyond the Myrrh Bearer’s (Angels) program that we have during Holy Week and Pascha? Please contact Evangelia Raptis-Zarou, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
