Extraordinary ministers are permitted when "the number of the
faithful requesting Holy Communion is such that the celebration of the
Mass would be unduly prolonged."
These ministers assist the presider in the distribution of the body and
blood of Christ at the weekend Masses as well as weekday Masses. Contact Vince Zaprzal of the Ministry/Liturgy Office at 630 543-4676 regarding weekends or
Bonnie Schroeder at 630 543-7406 regarding the weekday schedule..
