Homebound Eucharistic Minister
If one of our loved one becomes disabled, too ill or elderly and cannot attend Mass, we
would expect them to be able to receive the Precious Body of Christ at home or at a nursing home, right? Butwhat if there is not enough Homebound Eucharistic Ministers to deliver to all of those on the list each and every Sunday, what then? The answer is heart-breaking, many may go without communion for weeks at a time and sadly this is the reality here in your parish, happening to many of our brothers and sisters in Christ. So what can I do? I can say I can make a difference, I can say I can make a change, I can give up an hour or so once or twice a month or every Sunday morning, I can say yes to the knocking on my door
and answer our plea and become a home bound Eucharistic Minister. To say yes, please call the office Tues-Fri. 9 am-12 and 1-5 PM or speak to Fr. Ed or one of our
deacons before or after Mass.
