"While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, Take and eat: this is my body. Then he took the cup, gave thanks and gave it to them saying, Drink from it, all of you, For this is my blood of the covenant which shall be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins." Matthew 26:26-28
Eucharistic Ministers of Holy Communion at Mass help distribute the Blessed Sacrament and Precious Blood during Mass with the parish community, when scheduled or as needed. You have the opportunity to choose the Mass times you would like to be scheduled.
LITURGICAL MINISTRY TRAINING: All parishioners who serve as extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion are required to take a course offered by the Office of Divine Worship of the Diocese of Green Bay. Workshops focus on training those who already serve as extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion as well as those who wish to begin in this volunteer ministry.
