Monsenhor Leandro Diniz invests 7 new Ministers of the Eucharist in São Fidélis

Monsignor Leandro Diniz, the Vicar General of the Diocese of Campos, invested seven new Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion during a Mass at the São Fidélis de Sigmaringa Sanctuary Parish in São Fidélis. The ceremony, which included hundreds of faithful at the main church, provided the lay volunteers with formal authorization to assist in the liturgy and pastoral care.

During the homily, Monsignor Diniz stated that the ministers have a duty to use their talents to serve the Church with zeal and simplicity. He noted that a primary mission for these volunteers is to bring Holy Communion to elderly and sick parishioners who cannot attend Mass.

The parish priest, Father Gilberto Araújo, co-celebrated the Mass and noted that the ministers support the pastoral work of the community by assisting those unable to attend services.
