Holy Communion Outside of Mass
MINISTRY OF EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS OF HOLY COMMUNION
FOR HOMEBOUND, HEALTH CARE FACILITIES AND HOSPITALS
SAINT GEORGE CATHOLIC CHURCH
Please contact the office at 435-673-2604 regarding your interest or inquiries about our ministries.
This is a unique and rewarding experience for those who volunteer to provide Holy Communion, compassion, and faith to those who are homebound or in health care facilities.
Homebound and Health Care Facilities
- Training usually requires approximately two hours before you partake actively in this ministry.
- Prior to completion of the training, you are required to submit an application for “Safe Environment Certification” (Ministry to the Sick). The fee for a certificate is paid by the parish and is effective for three years. Once the certificate is approved, notice of approval is provided to the Parish Safe Environment Co-Ordinator and the applicant.
- The areas covered by this ministry include St. George, Ivins, Santa Clara, Washington, and Sun River. NOTE: Parish Registration is required.
- St. George is divided into four quadrants and EMHCs are given requests that are close to their homes to ease travel requirements and duties.
- EMHC services vary from temporary to long-term duty as required by our parishioners.
