Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion
The Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion (EMHC) performs a great service to the Church, by distributing Holy Communion to God’s people on those occasions where there are an insufficient number of priests and deacons to distribute Holy Communion to the people present at the mass, and to the homebound. It is an honor and a privilege to serve the Church in this capacity, and requires careful preparation on the part of the EMHC.
