Good Friday, May 2024
ACOLYTES
Serving in the altar is a great and Holy privilege. Acolytes are an integral part of the venerable Liturgical traditions of the Church, serving with the Priest's blessing and great reverence. All Orthodox young men and/or boys 10 years and older are invited to participate in the sacred privilege of serving in the altar. Acolytes must have a teachable spirit, demonstrate respect for liturgical tradition and commit to serving consistently. If your son is interested in participating in this formational year-round ministry, mark your calendars! New acolytes joining in Fall 2025 will begin serving in the holy altar on Sunday, August 24. Please email Pastoral Assistant John Anton janton@ascensiongoc.com to join and plan to be in church on that date.
