Communion to the Homebound March 18 – old

Note: These protocols are effective as of March 18, 2021

Parishes can resume a normal frequency of Communion calls if the minister of Communion is fully vaccinated. Please take the following precautions:

  • The calls should continue to be brief, just long enough to bring the Sacrament, and should not be extended visits.
  • The minister must wear a mask and must disinfect his or her hands before giving Communion, and again after leaving the home.
  • If it is feasible for the communicant to wear a mask, that should be done.

Family Members Who are Extraordinary Ministers

  • Family members who are extraordinary ministers of Communion can continue to bring the Blessed Sacrament to their own families regardless of vaccination status.
