Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist
|
|
We are eighty men and women who assist the ordinary ministers (the priests and deacon) at the Sunday and weekday liturgies. We have a visitation team which is dedicated to ministering to homebound parishioners. Called by the pastor to serve for a period of three years (with the option to renew), we range in age from seventeen to eighty and are single, married, married couples and widows. We in this ministry reflect and actualize the words of the parish mission statement: "...believes in Jesus Christ, is nourished by the Eucharist, seeks a deeper understanding of Jesus' Gospel and strives to be an effective sign of Jesus' presence within our society." |
