Altar Care

---

We are a group of people interested in helping to care for our liturgical environment at St. Mary church. We work in teams of 3 or 4 for one month, twice a year. We have “polishing parties” twice a year to keep the communion sets clean and shiny. A group meets in the sacristy for this.
