Candidates for Eucharistic Ministry are selected and chosen by the pastor of the parish. Any baptized Catholic in good standing can become an Extraordinary Minister. The final decision on becoming an extraordinary minister rests with the Archbishop of Philadelphia, Nelson Perez. Names and recommendations are submitted to him by the pastor. After final approval by the Archbishop, the Extraordinary Minister begins his/her ministry for an initial term of 3 years. At the end of 3 years, the ministry can end or be renewed by the pastor and again be submitted for approval by the Archbishop. The Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist assists in the distribution of Holy Communion during the liturgy and brings Holy Communion to the sick and disabled. Please contact Father Janton at the rectory if you are interested in becoming an extraordinary minister. For more information, contact Joe Phillips.
