Lay Eucharistic Ministry
We who are many are one body as we share one bread, one cup
Overview
Purpose:
Take communion to those unable to attend regular services so that they can participate in our worship community. Remember, that it is not just giving communion to the sick. It is a reminder to the person, the family, the nurses, and aides that they are still part of the body of Christ’s church in general and St. Peter’s in particular
