Be part of the Holy Communion team at the Papal Mass in Phoenix Park on Sunday August 26th
The WMOF Communion Team are seeking the generous help of around 4,000 ministers of Holy Communion to volunteer for one day to be Christ’s disciples helping to give the Bread of Life to the people at this historic Papal Mass. This is open to any of those who are already trained and assisting with the distribution of Holy Communion in their own parishes. We are looking for the help of lay people, priests, deacons and religious Ministers of Holy Communion.
Those volunteering need to be trained and functioning ministers of Holy Communion in your own parish community. You will need to be Garda vetted for this event, even though you have been vetted for this ministry in your own parish (if you are already Garda vetted for WMOF2018, that suffices). You will need to be in the Phoenix Park by 10.30am on Sunday 26th August.
To Volunteer to be a Minister of Holy Communion at the Papal Mass please contact
