Celebrating the Eucharist is at the very heart of our faith. However, because of illness or injury, many of our fellow Catholics in the St. Hubert area cannot join in the celebration. To ensure that these community members stay connected to us, we invite individuals to consider becoming a minister of care. These ministry volunteers are a wonderful “invisible army” that works quietly, diligently, and lovingly to bring our Lord to those who could not otherwise receive communion. As Ministers of Care, we bring communion to Catholics in area nursing homes and retirement homes, individual homes, and hospitals.
If you can join us in this ministry, we guarantee you will find it extremely rewarding. Training for Ministers of Care consists of two Saturdays, October 8
th & October 15
th from 8:30 AM–3:00 PM. It will be held at St. James Parish, 820 North Arlington Heights Road in Arlington Heights, IL 60004.
