pecial Ministers of the Eucharist have been part of school life for several years now. It is an opportunity for Year 12 students to be of serv ice to their school community. All Year 11 students are invited to consider this role and after consultation, a small group is commissioned. In 2000 four students acted as Special Ministers of the Eucharist. Two training sessions are given to the students prior to the beginning of the school year mass at which they are inaugurated . Student Special Ministers are involved in the distribution of communion at this first mass as well as those masses on Edmund Rice Day and Family Day. On Ash Wednesday the Special Ministers are also involved in the distribution of ashes at year level paraliturgies. In past years students who acted as Special Ministers of the Eucharist at CBC have gone on to be involved in this particular role within their own parish community. Br P A Hackett, cfc
