Eligibility

Any baptized and confirmed member of the parish community is encouraged to become an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion. One needs to attend a training session, have a willingness to spiritually prepare before Mass, and be willing to grow in in their faith and ministry.

Training Sessions

Training sessions are generally available on an on-going basis but may be impacted by the current COVID19 restrictions.  If you are interested in becoming an EMHC, please email Steve Cox at [email protected]
