Eucharistic Visitors

Eucharistic Visitor Coordinator: The Rev. Cindy Woods

This special ministry involves taking the Eucharist to church members unable to attend the service. After being consecrated by one of our priests, the elements are carried out to parishioners by Eucharistic Visitors so that they may share with the entire parish in God’s feast and may take place at home, in hospital, or care facility. Anyone wanting to participate in this ministry will be trained initially with Mtr. Sara and Mtr. Nancy and given a handbook to study. After observing an experienced EV over a few Sundays, the trainee is ready to lead the service on her/his own. We bring along the readings and bulletin from that Sunday’s service and relate the highlights of the sermon to the person we’re visiting, proceeding after that with the Eucharist. We also offer prayers for the person and their family. This is a quiet, meaningful ministry that brings joy and a sense of connectedness for all involved.
