1 MITER AND CROSIER AT CONFIRMATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ALTAR SERVERS (April 2015) Two Altar Servers are assigned for Miter and Crosier, during a mass with a Bishop or Archbishop. AS Miter Bearer (MB): Responsible for giving the Miter (hat) to and receiving it from the Bishop AS Crosier Bearer (CB): Responsible for giving the Crosier (staff) to and receiving it from the Bishop Special Notes: Check with the bishop before mass starts, and ask him if he will want to wear the miter and hold the crosier during the homily. The miter is the pointed hat that the bishop wears and the crosier is the pastoral staff the he carries. Both are important visual symbols of the bishop s office as teacher and shepherd of God s people. Altar Servers, who are the Miter and Crosier bearers, will process behind the Bishop during the entrance and closing processions. The Bishop will likely hand and receive the Miter and Crosier directly to and from the servers. (If the area by the altar is very crowded, then the deacon or MC may act as an intermediary.) The Miter is handed to the Bishop with the opening towards him, the front facing down, and the lappets folded over the top. The Crosier is handed to the Bishop with the Closed side of the curved crook towards him. Both the miter and crosier bearer will wear white gloves. The gloves are located in the altar server/usher s room, in the box on the shelf. Both the miter and crosier bearer will sit in the chairs located in the sanctuary. Preparation: Arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled start of the mass and be ready for any changes from the presider. Do not be late! If you are late, the presider may assume you will not show up and assign new roles for the mass. Wear Alb & Cincture (Color depending on the type of mass).
