Become a Minister of Care

Ministers of Care are lay extraordinary ministers who visit the homebound and ill to distribute Holy Communion. Our extraordinary ministers have received training and are officially recognized by the Church as “another of Christ's faithful deputed.” In addition to Communion, ministers of care provide spiritual comfort and prayer.

If you’d like to bring Communion to the sick, homebound, and hospitalized please register for the Minister of Care training at Our Lady of Perpetual Help from 8:30 AM-1:00 PM on Saturday October 25th and Nov 1st. 

Advanced registration is required. Please contact Marie Dombai at [email protected] or 773-631-4127 ext 116.
