“From the earliest days of the Church, the People of God have come together to celebrate the Paschal Ministry.  In that celebration, the Holy Mass, we celebrate the Eucharist in which the triumph and victory of His death are again made present in a real way.  At Eucharist, we also give thanks for this inexpressible gift in Christ Jesus through the Holy Spirit. 

From this, it follows that every liturgical celebration, and in particular the Mass, is an action of Christ the Priest and of His Body, which is the Church.  It is a sacred action surpassing all others.  No other action of the Church can equal its efficacy by the same title and to the same degree.”  - Sacrosanctum Concilium, 6 & 7.
 

Overview
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (EMHC) assist at mass with the distribution of communion and/or bring communion to the sick, homebound, and hospitalized of our parish.  EMHC must be a practical Catholic that has received the sacrament of confirmation.  Eucharistic ministers must have received the Sacrament of Confirmation and be in good standing with the Church. They serve as ministers of the Eucharist at weekend Masses and assist at communion services.  Being worthy is less important than the desire to use this ministry as a way to become more worthy.   Training is required.
