You say that you've got a parish priest who is eager to take advantage of the Holy Father's motu proprio, but you're woefully lacking in altar boys to assist?
Is that's what's troubling you...bunky?
Then lift your mouse up high and click here for a tutorial for priests and altar servers, courtesy of the Canons Regular of Saint John Cantius (covered by an article by Zenit which in my humble opinion is a short must-read).
The work is a work in progress but also a work of love. Do explore this amazing website, and, to steal a thought from the Merry Old Philosopher:
Never give up,
Never give up,
Never give up The Ship!
Never give up,
Never give up The Ship!
