Extraordinary Ministers

Extraordinary Ministers

Lay people assist the ordained priest and deacon (the Ordinary Ministers) in the distribution of Holy Communion at Mass and to the housebound. They are therefore called Extraordinary Ministers.

Extraordinary Ministers receive a formal training programme, are commissioned annually and expected to attend a half day of reflection and renewal each year.

If you wish to volunteer for this role, please speak to Father Behr or to Deacon Jolyon.
