In the Archdiocese of Omaha, Catholic men or women who are high school juniors or older and are recommended by the pastor are mandated to serve as an EMHC. Training sessions are held twice a year. An EMHC is mandated by the Archbishop to serve in this archdiocese only. If you served in another diocese, you must be mandated in Omaha.

In St. Columbkille Parish, EMHC’s serve at weekday and weekend Masses, on Holy Days, weddings, funerals, and at other parish Eucharistic celebrations. They may also take Holy Communion to the sick and the homebound.
