ST. PAUL'S HOMEBOUND MINISTRY

Have you ever wondered how you can become a greater part of the life of St. Paul's Parish? While there are several ministries in which you can become involved, one stands out. That is the Eucharistic Ministry to our homebound parishioners.

This entails visiting homebound parishioners or those residing in board and care facilities within our parish boundaries and bringing to them the Body of Christ in the Holy Eucharist. Compassion and humility are requisites for this ministry as one is entering another's home and perhaps meeting a parishioner at his or her worst. Having said that, it is a most beautiful and rewarding ministry.

Ministers will be provided with trainings, and all supplies they will need to participate in this ministry.

If you find yourself drawn to this ministry, please contact Carol at the parish office at 208-466-7031 Ext. 4444
