About this Ministry"In every celebration of the Eucharist there should always be a sufficient number of ministers for the distribution of the Eucharist. When there are large numbers of the faithful present and there are insufficient ordinary and auxiliary members at hand, special or extraordinary ministers properly appointed beforehand should assist in the distribution of Communion." - HLS, #29
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (commonly referred to as "Eucharistic Ministers") are properly formed, instructed, and commissioned lay persons. These ministers are appointed for a given parish community to aid in the distribution of Holy Communion at Mass and to the sick and homebound when ordinary ministers of Holy Communion are unavailable. They may be men or women, and they should reflect the cultural diversity of their parish community.
St. Rose of Lima invites parishioners to serve as Eucharistic Ministers in Mass services and as Eucharistic Ministers to the homebound members of our congregation. -
Whom to ContactIf you're interested in joining either the Sunday Mass ministry or the homebound ministry, please contact the rectory at (805) 526-1732.
