YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
A half-day of training and discernment for those interested in becoming an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion will be held on Saturday, September 29, 2018 from 9 a.m. – 1:00pm. The training will begin in St. Joseph's Hall and will finish in the church. You must attend the training, and determine whether or not this ministry is appropriate for you before you begin to serve as an EMHC. The requirements for the Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion ministry are: you must be at least 18 years of age; confirmed; a practicing Catholic able to receive Holy Communion; have taken VIRTUS training; and if married, you must be validly married in a Catholic Church.
Current EMHCs are also invited to attend any part of this training program as a refresher, especially those of you who have not attended refresher training in the last couple of years.
Please consider becoming a part of this very rewarding ministry. We need you!
While registration is not necessary, we would like to know who is attending so we can prepare sufficient handouts. If you plan to attend, or if you have any questions, please contact Freda Monk at 713-962-2865 or fredamonk@aol.com.
