Eucharistic Ministers
“I am the Alpha and the Omega.”Mission: To assist the clergy in distributing the Eucharist, as well as, to server as bearers of the Eucharist to the ill and the homebound.
Role: Normally, each Eucharistic Minister is scheduled to distribute the Eucharist Saturday or Sunday on a regular basis throughout the year. You need to be invited by our Pastor, full training is provided and a Commissioning Ceremony required.
This beautiful ministry allows trained lay people to administer the Eucharist in both species (body and blood) at Mass. This ministry also encompasses bringing communion to the home bound if desired. Training is done on an 'as needed' basis and you are then scheduled according to your Mass preference. We always welcome new parishioners for this wonderful ministry. -
Have you considered becoming a Minister of Holy Communion?
Ministers of the Holy Communion are needed to assist with the distribution of Communion to the residents at the Masonic Home. We are forming 3 teams, each charged with the responsibility of administering Communion one Saturday per month to the elderly and sick who cannot, on their own, attend Mass.
If you would like to be part of this vital and rewarding ministry, contact Deacon Bill at deaconbill@stjosephscharlton.com or by calling 508-248-8512 .
Next training will be held Sat Feb 22 in the Main Worship area 9:00a - 12:00noon. You must be fully initiated into the Church having received the Sacrament of Confirmation. -
