Pastoral care of Catholics in hospitals and other healthcare facilities is the responsibil-
ity of the parish in whose boundaries the facility is located. Although many of the
Emory Healthcare campuses are in our parish, for many years Monsignor Frank
Giusta was employed by Emory as the full-time Catholic chaplain there. Since
Monsignor Giusta’s death earlier this year, that ministry once again falls to us at IHM.
In addition to our clergy, we have a very dedicated cadre of Extraordinary Ministers
of Holy Communion who bring the Sacrament to patients in healthcare facilities, resi-
dents in personal care homes and the homebound. You often see them receiving the
Blessed Sacrament at the foot of the altar at the end of Mass. Yet the need for pastoral
care of the sick now exceeds the resources of these very dedicated volunteers.
If you are presently an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion and you
assist only at our daily and Sunday Masses, please consider whether you might also
be willing and able to bring Holy Communion to the sick from time to time. If you are
willing and able, please contact Jeanette Dohnal at 678-399-3584 or
[email protected] or Jeff Bush at [email protected] for more information.
If you are not presently an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, and you
would like more information about this ministry, please see the information sheets in
the literature rack in the narthex or on our parish website.

MEN’S CLUB MEETING Wednesday, October 5

Talley as our guest of honor and speaker. To
accommodate his schedule, we have changed the
meeting to Wednesday, October 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the
Historic Church. We will have the space to
accommodate a large crowd, so we hope to see a lot of
new faces turn up. So don't miss this opportunity to
meet our auxiliary bishop. And as usual, we ask that
you RSVP to our Men's Club meetup website at
http://www.meetup.com/IHM-Mens-Club; it only takes
a minute, and allows us to coordinate the food and beverages.
