Eucharist Ministry
Eucharistic Ministry is a ministry that involves the distribution of Holy Communion to the congregation of a Catholic Church. It is the ministry of bringing the sacrament of the Body and Blood of Christ to the People of God. It is also the ministry of witnessing to faith in the real presence of Christ in the action of sharing in the Eucharistic meal of Christ’s sacrifice.

Home Bound Ministry
Homebound ministries bring the love and grace of the Triune God to Catholics who are not able to come to the parish to receive the sacraments or to attend other activities. Most often, homebound ministries consist of hearing confession, anointing the sick or baptizing, as a priest would do; and providing Communion, catechizing or providing friendship and assistance, as either a priest or lay person commissioned in that ministry might do.
