Editor,
Catholic Eucharist ministers assist the priest giving parishioners Holy Communion during celebration of the Mass.
Some ministers visit the sick and homebound giving them comfort and Holy Communion. Eucharistic ministers give of their time to help those in need.
I have been blessed. I have a very good minister. I haven’t been well.
“When I was sick you visited me.”

“When did we visit you Lord?”
“When you did this for your bretherns (brothers or sisters) you did it for me.”
Wishing everyone a happy and prepserous new year.
