This course meets the training portion of the requirements established by the Diocese of Massachusetts for licensing as a Eucharistic visitor. A two-person team, consisting of a member of the clergy and an experienced Eucharistic Visitor, will introduce participants to the history and practice of this important lay ministry. It is recommended that the sponsoring rector attend the same session if he/she has not participated in a training course during the past three years.

For more information about the requirements for licensing as a Eucharistic visitor, consult your rector.

Individuals may register by sending a registration form and tuition ($35 for individuals, $20 for Clergy), payable to Diocese of Massachusetts to: Eucharistic Visitor Training, 15 Fremont St., Plymouth, MA 02360. The deadline for registrations is April 26, 2008.
