Our Homebound Ministry consists of bringing Jesus in the Eucharist to fellow parishioners living in their private homes, as well as all Catholic residents of four area nursing homes (Amoroso on Carol Rd, Autumn House on E Market St, Kingston Court Nursing & Rehab, and Pleasant Acres). The first step is to meet with the pastor who will endorse your eligibility to become an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion (EMHC). The next step will be to attend a diocesan EMHC training session. Training sessions are offered regularly throughout the diocese and often right here at St. Joe’s. EMHC’s must be at least in their senior year of high school, known for a good Catholic manner of living and for service to the parish and the community.Contact: Binky Theodore (Parish Secretary & Staff Member)Phone: 717-755-7503, ext 250Email: [email protected]
