How do Altar Servers learn how to serve at the Mass? Check out this book for some valuable resources! This 1961 classic contains all the valuable information that a young man needs in order to learn how to serve the traditional Latin Mass--yet it is so much more than just "nuts and bolts." After reading this book, boys will come away not only with an understanding of the parts of the Mass and the role they must fulfill; they will also have a true sense of the privilege with which they will be entrusted, and the ways in which they must advance in order to be worthy of that honor.
Each of these 25 illustrated lessons therefore begins with a discussion of the character and responsibilities of those who assist at the altar. This done, a portion of the Latin responses are taught in phonetic form, and after this rubrics are introduced. Each chapter then ends with review questions.
Useful in a classroom setting or for independent study, Learning to Serve is an indispensable resource for all prospective altar servers and those who are charged with their instruction.

Wonderful resource. My sons loved this book. Straightforward and very detailed information on how to serve at the Latin Mass.
Excellent training manual for a beginning Latin Mass server, but each chapter is a great lesson for all Catholic Boys. My 8 year-old son ask me to read him a chapter every day.
Wonderful book for any young boy wanting to learn about what it means to be an altar boy in the Traditional Latin rite. Our son loves reading this book and doing the necessary studying. He looks forward to each lesson and loves to review the previous. Well written with wonderful information. A gem of a book!
I bought 2 of these books, one for our son and the other for a dear friend. I liked that the Latin was written phonetically. My son likes the photos and descriptions of the items used and worn as he compares them to the items used in our parish. It solidifies what he already knows and shows him there can be differences for the same items.
Thanks!
We started the lessons with my soon to be first communicant/altar boy and they were easy to read and get through. The lessons are simple enough to understand and short enough to get information he can remember. Thanks.
