Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (EMHCs) are members of the Church specially trained and authorized to help the priest to distribute the Eucharist at Mass or in visits to the sick or homebound. EMHCs serve our parish and visitors by assisting in the distribution of the Body and Blood of our Lord at our Eucharistic liturgies on the weekends, Holy Days, and other special days. We minister at a very special and holy time to each communicant. Each minister is approved by the pastor.
