Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist are fully initiated members of the Laity who assist the priests and deacons in the distribution of the Eucharist. This ministry touches the mysteries of our faith so closely that particular care must be given to the selection, training and liturgical presence of these men and women.

Eucharistic ministers must be faithful Catholics who have received the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and the Eucharist. For more information, or to become involved, please call the rectory, 528-0020 or email parishpublishing@stmarysfranklin.org.
