Lay Eucharistic Minister

A Lay Eucharistic Minister (LEM) is a lay person who is licensed by the Bishop to administer the consecrated elements of the eucharist. LEMs may be licensed to administer the consecrated bread and wine at any celebration of the eucharistic in the absence of a sufficient number of priests and deacons to assist the celebrant. They may also be licensed to go from a Sunday eucharistic or other principal celebrations of the eucharist to share the sacrament with members of the congregation who were unable to be present at the celebration because of illness or infirmity.

If you are interested in serving in this ministry, please contact Mike Lankford through the church office.
