Eucharistic Ministers

Whenever there is a need for the celebrating priest to have assistance distributing the most precious body and blood of our Lord at Mass, he is permitted, in the absence of other priests and deacons, to make use of Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion. These Ministers assist the priest at the Mass in the distribution of Holy Communion.

Men or women can serve as Extraordinary Minsters of Holy Communion.

Is God calling you to be a Eucharistic Minister? Do you want to share more deeply in the celebration of the Eucharist? There is a need for additional Eucharistic Ministers at all of the Masses. Basic requirements are that you be a baptized, practicing, confirmed Catholic adult.
