Can someone point me to offical church guidelines on the steps / procedures for becoming an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion? I’m a bit concerned that the process that my parish followed may not be in keeping with church teching as it seemed very simple and informal.

Also, can someone provide official church documentation supporting the position that Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion can NOT give blessings to people nor use the host to bless people since I understand that is reserved for ordained priests only.

I have a meeting this week with my pastor regarding some ‘concerns’ that I have about my role as a newly appointed Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion and I want to make sure that I know what I am talking about. Thank you in advance.
