Society of St Tarcisius

The society also has a blog, see tarcisius.org

No ministry, except that of those who by ordination are set apart for the service of the Altar, deserves greater thought and consideration than the duty entrusted to those laymen and youths who have the office of assisting the priests of God in the discharge of their sacred functions.

Francis Cardinal Bourne, 1907

What’s it all about?

The Society of St Tarcisius (SST) is the Latin Mass Society’s guild or sodality of Altar servers

It organises training, and on attainment of competency in various roles, servers can be enrolled, and invested with a medal on a silk cord with the SST’s emblem, which can be worn (with permission of the celebrant) while serving the liturgy.

Masses are celebrated regularly for the SST and its members.

For more details, see the Society of Tarcisius Guide for Members (pdf)

Server Training Days

Server Training Day

The SST organises five or six Server Training Days a year in London; others are arranged in different parts of country.

Attendance is free, for members and non-members of the SST.

There will be at least two and usually more experienced Masters of Ceremonies to instruct servers wishing to learn.

Servers of all ages are welcome. Those under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, or an adult deputed by them and known to the server.

Booking is required, so the organisers have an accurate idea of numbers attending and what they wish to learn; there is no fee. For details see the Events Calendar or the Society of St Tarcisius blog, or join the email list.
