Guild of St. Stephen/Altar Servers

​The Guild of St. Stephen helps Altar Servers deepen their understanding of the role they play at Mass - encouraging reverence, prayerfulness, and a growing sense of vocation. It supports high standards of service during the Church’s liturgies, helping the whole community take part more fully in the worship of God.

At St. Bartholomew’s, our Altar Servers play a valued role each week by supporting our Clergy during Mass. Initial training usually takes place in June, but new Servers are very welcome to join us at any time.

There is no cost involved in becoming an Altar Server.

Accessibility - St. Bartholomew's does its utmost to accommodate those with additional needs. Whilst the main body of the church is wholly accessible to people with mobility disabilities, the choir gallery is both approached by stairs and the seating is then stepped by design. The church has a wheelchair-accessible toilet, and baby-changing facilities. There is a Loop System (AFIL) in place in the church.
