It is typically knee-length with wide sleeves and is often made from lightweight fabric. For altar servers, the surplice represents purity and a readiness to serve at the altar. It is traditionally worn with a black or red cassock underneath, especially in more formal or traditional liturgical settings. The surplice helps distinguish those participating directly in the sacred liturgy."],"_faq_answer_1":["field_67a0ab914445d"],"faq_question_2":["Can altar servers wear lace surplice?"],"_faq_question_2":["field_67a0abbe44462"],"faq_answer_2":["Yes, altar servers can wear a lace surplice, but this depends on the customs and preferences of the particular church or parish. Lace surplices, often adorned with decorative patterns on the sleeves and hem, are typically used in more traditional or high liturgical settings. While lace adds a touch of elegance and tradition, many churches prefer simple, plain surplices for altar servers to emphasize humility and uniformity. If lace is permitted, it is usually modest and not overly ornate."],"_faq_answer_2":["field_67a0aba14445e"],"faq_question_3":["What are five duties of an altar server?"],"_faq_question_3":["field_67a0abcc44463"],"faq_answer_3":["Altar servers assist the priest during the celebration of the Mass and other liturgical functions.

Since 1994, the Vatican has given permission for girls to serve at the altar, provided the local bishop permits it. Many parishes now include both boys and girls in their altar server programs. However, some traditionalist parishes may still choose to have only male servers. The inclusion of female servers is seen as a way to promote wider participation and service in the Church."],"_faq_answer_4":["field_67a0abb044460"],"faq_question_5":["What are the 5 ideals of an altar server?"],"_faq_question_5":["field_67a0abe844465"],"faq_answer_5":["The five ideals of an altar server typically include:\r\n1.
