Calling all Altar Servers!We will have regular altar server training sessions each month and special mandatory training during Advent and Lent in preparation for the special liturgies of Christmas, Passion Week, and Easter.
March 9th, 2023 6pm
St. Teresa’s has two levels of servers:
Candle bearers and Cross bearers, which levels are open to everyone of any age who is a baptized Catholic and has received their First Holy Communion.
Candle Bearers are our first level and are filled by servers who are learning the ropes or are still too small to carry the Cross during the Introit and Recessional. After initial training, new servers start at the candle bearer level, which allows them to become accustomed to serving in the liturgy. The candle bearers attend the presiding priest or deacon at the Ambo and back up the cross-bearer, ensuring all necessary items for the altar are ready for Father and assist him with the Lavabo.
When a candle bearer has served, usually at least a year, and is strong enough to carry the crucifix, they graduate to cross-bearer. Cross bearers assist the presiding priest and deacons directly at the altar and with the distribution of Communion.
When cross-bearers have served at least a year, they can, if they wish, also be trained as thurifers to assist Father in incensing the alter during High Masses and Benedictions.
Upcoming Trainings:

Evening Online Scriptural Rosary with
KofC Auburn Council 6149
Every Sunday from 7:00-8:00pmMy brothers & sisters in Christ,
I would like to offer my thanks and appreciation to all of those who have participated previously in our weekly rosary. May I invite everyone to come and share in this rich tradition of the Church.
During difficult times, our faith tells us that we need to come together in prayer and pray to our Blessed Lord as one people. . In accordance with that tradition, Auburn KofC Council 6149 would like to invite everyone to come and share in the Prayer of the Gospels with us online every Sunday evening at 7:00pm. In each decade the Hail Mary will be preceded by a scripture reading. To view the scripture reading please use the following link for a guide to a scriptural rosary:
https://www.kofc14057.org/prayerbook/scriptural_rosary.pdf
Given the time of the year, we will also include the The Litany of Saint Benedict. This prayer can be accessed with the following link:

Leo Tolstoy said "Give me faith, Lord, and let me help others find it."
The Knights of Columbus Auburn Council 6149 would like to offer this scriptural rosary publicly to help others find their faith and come together in common prayer. The rosary is our expression of faith, and we would like to offer this as a service to the Christian community and to those of like mind to come together and pray for the common good.
We are open to questions, comments and feedback in an attempt to make this a more spirituality fulfilling experience. Also, if you have any prayers or intentions that you want to offer, please let me know. Comments, prayers & intentions can be addressed to me at kofc6149@gmail.com."If I had an army to say the Rosary, I could conquer the world."
Blessed Pope Piux IX
I hope to see everyone there.
In Christo,
Hugh Paxton

“Holy Church celebrates the saving work of Christ on prescribed days in the course of the year with sacred remembrance.

In fact, throughout the course of the year the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and...
