Extraordinary Ministers assist the celebrant with the distribution of the Body and Blood of Jesus at Mass.

Membership:
Open to all registered parishioners who are practicing, confirmed Roman Catholics with no obstacle to the Church’s teaching (example: married once in the Catholic Church by a Priest or, if remarried having obtained an annulment and the second marriage convalidated).

Training:
One 3 hour initial training and one 1 hour annual refresher training. 
Other trainings as required.

Extraordinary Ministers are expected to report to the sacristy at least 25 minutes before Mass begins and dress appropriately. In order to maintain the integrity of the celebration of the Eucharist, Extraordinary Ministers, once scheduled, are required to secure their own replacement in the event they cannot fulfill their commitment.
