Campus Ministry Updates: Servers, Readers & Guardians Needed
Campus Ministry encourages the involvement of the whole family in the spiritual growth and development of each person. Throughout the year, there will be opportunities for you or your student to participate or serve in some grace-filled way.
Right now, we are in need of some volunteers for altar serving or reading at daily Mass, as well as Guardians for Eucharistic Adoration.
Altar Serving Sign Up
Boys in grades 4th-12th who have been trained to serve at PA Masses are asked to volunteer to serve at the 7:00 AM daily Masses. If boys would like to serve Mass, but have not yet been trained at Pinecrest, please contact one of our Chaplains: LS- Fr. Matthew Kaderabek, MS- Fr. Terrance Allen or HS- Fr. William Brock. A calendar will be created and sent to boys who make this special commitment. SIGN UP FOR SERVING HERE.

Bless a loved one with the priceless gift of a Mass said for them
Throughout the year, you can stop by the Front Desk of the Lower School building and request a Mass in honor of your loved ones' birthdays, anniversaries, special intentions, or for the repose of a soul. At every Mass, the highest form of prayer we have in the Church, prayers are being offered for someone's special intentions.

Beautiful Mass cards are available for presenting this gift. *Though there is no such thing as "buying" a Mass, a $10 stipend to support our priests is customary. Call the Main Number of the school or Contact Lucy Daniels or Cheryl DePalma for more information.
