2012 Altar Server Award
The Serra Club of Indianapolis will again this year provide certificates honoring graduating eighth graders who were altar servers at masses in their parish. If you will provide the names of those boys and girls, official certificates will be prepared that can be signed by your pastor, or designate, and awarded to the graduate at a graduation ceremony or some other special event.
Also, if you have one individual who has performed exceptionally as an altar server in the past year, please provide his/her name, and a medal will be provided acknowledging extraordinary service. In the past, some parishes have requested more than one However, Serrans believe that awarding multiple “altar server of the year awards” minimizes the significance of this achievement, and ask that you please select only one server for this award.
Please send the following information by April 27, 2012:
- names of your altar servers
- identity of the “altar server of the year”
- timing: when do you need the awards
