Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion are adults who have received all three Sacraments of Initiation and who, if married, have received the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony. These Ministers participate in the sacramental life of the parish, attending Mass regularly, and are commissioned to help in the distribution of Communion during Sunday Masses, weekday Masses, Feast days, weddings and funerals. Schedules are provided on a regular basis. For current Ministers, trainings and formation sessions are held throughout the year.
Trainings for new Ministers usually take place in the Fall.
