Saturday, March 2 from 9-12:30pm
at the Mercer School of Theology
65 Fourth St., Garden City
Instructor: The Rev. Canon Michael Delaney, Chaplain and Diocesan Precentor
This workshop will prepare those nominated by their clergy to act as Lay Eucharistic Visitors to those hospitalized, confined to rehabilitation and nursing institutions, and the homebound. Content will include Eucharistic theology, role-playing for Eucharistic visits, and information about required specific Safe Church training. With their rector/ clergy-in-charge's support, those who participate in this workshop can then be licensed by the Bishop's Office as Lay Eucharistic Visitors.
Clergy must register their EV candidates by contacting the Mercer Office in writing or by email (merceroffice@dioceseli.org). Written permission to serve as an EV is required for all participants. Proof of their completion of required Safe Church training from 2020 or later will be required for their final licensing.
