The Altar Server

By: Wayne, G.

In the hallowed halls of St. Kizito parish, seventeen-year-old Elijah "Po" Garcia is the picture-perfect altar server-devout, dependable, and desperately hiding a storm of doubt. Raised by his strict grandparents after a tragic loss, Po juggles the demands of Catholic tradition with the chaotic antics of his brothers: Carl, the pint-sized inventor whose "fixes" often end in explosions, and Justin, the aspiring rapper turning scripture into beats. But when Po's white lies about wild parties spiral into real rebellion, one disastrous Easter Mass unleashes a cascade of mishaps, from flaming thuribles to flooded laundry rooms.

As Po navigates crushes, "sin lessons," and a crisis of faith, he questions everything: Is death a victory, or just an empty promise? Can he escape the weight of expectations without losing his family? Blending heartfelt drama with laugh-out-loud humor, The Altar Server is a coming-of-age tale about grief, grace, and growing up in a world where holiness and havoc collide. Perfect for fans of witty family sagas and thoughtful explorations of belief.
