Have you ever been sick in the hospital; lying in bed alone without any visitors and all you can do is pray to Jesus for His help, peace and comfort?  Suddenly your prayers are answered.  Into your room walks a Eucharistic Minister who brings you the best medicine – Jesus Himself – to help you and bring you peace and spiritual comfort.  In your heart you were overjoyed and thankful that this person came to visit you and brought you the most precious gift of Jesus in the Eucharist.  Or perhaps you couldn’t receive the Eucharist, so the Eucharistic Minister, with Jesus present, offers to say a prayer for your healing and comfort.
