Sacristans of Little Therese

This important ministry trains girls to serve in the sacristy, and is open to all girls who have received their First Communion. It is not only a beautiful way for girls to participate in parish life, but also cultivates a deep, reverent understanding of the Mass. Participating girls will attend occasional trainings, and serve in the sacristy both before and after Mass.

Knights of the Altar

Serving at the altar is a great privilege! The altar servers work with and learn from Father and Deacon. Any boy (ages 8+) who has received his First Communion is eligible. Training is held periodically, but servers can join at any time, after studying a handbook and meeting/registering with the altar server coordinator.

Parish Mapping

In order to strengthen community, we want to offer parishioners the chance to learn which Holy Namers live closest to them. Groups have been established based on neighborhood and location.

We won’t share your actual address, just the neighborhood you’re a part of and approximate locations within that. You can sign up by clicking here or contact Anna with questions at outreach@holynamedenver.org
