We are a group of parish volunteers who take a more active role during Mass and serve the people at St Julie Billiart during Eucharistic celebrations.Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist have the privilege to help the priest and deacons distribute the precious Body and Blood of Christ to those who come to holy Communion at Sunday Masses, holy days, and weekday Masses.A Eucharistic Minister must be a fully initiated member of the Church (having received the Sacraments of Baptism, First Communion, and Confirmation).Training is provided. The time commitment is based on individual preference and availability.Parishioners who feel called to this important ministry should contact coordinator, Kristen Foye [email protected] or call the parish office (805) 498-3602

Extraordinary Ministers to the Sick and Homebound
“I was sick and you visited me” Matthew 25:36
Some of our Eucharistic Ministers are specially trained and commissioned to carry Holy Communion to our parishioners who may be sick, elderly, or homebound and unable to join us in Church.
If you know of a Catholic in our community who is wishing to receive Holy Communion and is in the hospital, a health care facility, or homebound, please contact the Eucharistic Ministry Coordinator, listed below.
