Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion connect the Parish Community to the home or hospital, when needed. When we return to our pews after receiving Communion, we see those that gather at the altar to be handed the Eucharist by the priest for distribution to those that are unable to attend Mass due to health issues or other circumstances. After Mass, when we leave the Church and begin our Sunday activities, these individuals carry the most Holy Eucharist out into the community – to homes, nursing homes, and hospitals. For those who are sick or homebound, it is heartwarming and comforting to see a familiar face walk into the room. The visit, the prayers, and the Eucharist are truly gifts for them.
