They bring Holy Communion, Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, to Catholics who cannot attend Mass. They also bring Jesus through prayer, through sharing the Word of God, and through their own attentive and compassionate presence. In doing so, they enable our brothers and sisters to maintain their connection to the local Catholic community. Our volunteers lead or assist with Communion services and visit individuals in their rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ccwcwashtenaw.org\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/ccwcwashtenaw.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Catholic Charities Washtenaw County<\/strong><\/a> supports the Ann Arbor Deanery in this apostolate by providing ministry coordination and training.
