‘Living Eucharistically is Living Life as a Gift’ (Henri Nouwen)

Ministers of the Eucharist are mandated with the awesome responsibility of bringing the Body and Blood of Jesus to the lives of those who hunger for it, both as part of the liturgical assembly and individually to the homes of the sick and housebound.  The meaning of the word is ‘to give thanks’ and it is this disposition which should be foremost in our mind as ministers. The day will offer Eucharistic Ministers the opportunity to spend some time exploring the theology of Eucharist and to consider its place the context of their vocation as lay Christians. It will be an opportunity to learn, to ponder, to meditate and to pray.
