Altar Servers

Boys who have made First Holy Communion as well as adolescents and men are invited to serve at the altar during Holy Mass, Vespers, Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, and other services at the Church of the Assumption.

Confraternity of Saint Stephen

Bishop J Mark Spalding established the Guild of St. Stephen for altar servers at the Church of the Assumption. Our guild is part of the Guild & Archconfraternity of St. Stephen based at Westminster Cathedral in London.


Membership of the Guild is open to any boy or man, without any limit of age, who can serve Mass, and who has shown proof of a desire to conform to the object of the Guild.
