I know that this is not the issue and will only confuse Catholics. In short it does not matter who picks lay people to distribute Holy Communion at Mass or elsewhere as they should NOT be distributing Holy Communion at all! The issue is the intent behind these Masses. Even where the use of lay extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion is allowed (nowhere in Wales & England) by the rules of our Holy Mother the Church, we can NEVER call these lay people, “eucharistic ministers”. Being the charitable sort that I am, and knowing that you did not intend to support such abuse, I chose to edit and comment on your comment, this is my blog after all!
