The Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion is one of the most important ministries to the Roman Catholic liturgy. Each weekend, 85-90 ministers are scheduled to serve the St. Michael community.

The requirements to serve as Eucharistic Minister are:
must be a fully-initiated Catholic in good standing
have received the Sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation
if married, marriage must have been blessed by the church
be a registered member of the parish
