Worship Commissioner is a voluntary service in the liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church , which can be performed by commissioned lay people .

Worshipers can work as communion helpers at Holy Mass if the number of believers who want to receive communion is large and there are not enough deacons or priests present to give communion.

As extraordinary communion dispenser extraordinary minister of holy communion must in accordance with Article 8 of the Vatican on Certain Questions Regarding the Collaboration of instruction lay the Ministry of Priests outside the 1997 Eucharist donate the Communion, as the sick Communion or the Viaticum .

In addition, worship representatives at word services with communion distribution are allowed to invite to communion and to give thanks . In addition, in the absence of clergy , they may suspend the sacrament of the altar in the ciborium , in the pyxis or in the monstrance for Eucharistic adoration and then reposition it again at the end, but it is not permitted for worshipers to give the Eucharistic blessing .

Divine service representatives should be suitable and well prepared for this service; they require the commission of the responsible pastor for their service .

Situation in Germany

The worship officers are usually trained by the ordinariate and commissioned by the bishop . In exceptional cases , they can be authorized directly by the celebrant . On January 8, 1999, the bishops in Germany adopted a framework for cooperation between priests , deacons and lay people in the field of liturgy .
