Five Easy Steps to Begin Living the Eucharist in Your Parish STEP 1 The pastor and other parish leaders review the Living the Eucharist materials and decide to begin this ministry.

They learn about Living the Eucharist by viewing or reading these items in the Parish Starter Kit: n

The Presentation Video, found on the Living the Eucharist DVD, or in the “Get Information” section of www.LivingtheEucharist.org

n

Chapter 1 of the Parish Leadership Team Manual, “Welcome to Living the Eucharist”

n

The materials in the Parish Resource Pack

They learn about the powerful impact of this ministry by viewing the “What People are Saying” section of www.LivingtheEucharist.org.

STEP 2 The pastor, with input from the parish staff and/or others, appoints a Living the Eucharist team coordinator and designates a parish staff member to work with this person.

The pastor reads Chapters 1–4 and 6 of the Parish Leadership Team Manual to familiarize himself with Living the Eucharist, his role, the ministry of the team coordinator, the ministry of the team, and the process of assembling the team.

STEP 3 Once appointed, the team coordinator learns about his or her ministry by first viewing the video titled “Orientation for Parish Leadership Team Coordinators,” found at www.LivingtheEucharist.org/orientation, and then reading Chapters 1–5 of the Parish Leadership Team Manual.

STEP 4 The coordinator, with input and approval from the pastor, and in collaboration with the parish staff representative, assembles a team.

For guidance in doing this, the coordinator uses Chapter 6 of the Parish Leadership Team Manual, “Assembling the Team.”

STEP 5 The team coordinator orients and trains the team, which implements Living the Eucharist in the parish.

For guidance in doing this, the coordinator uses Chapter 7 of the Parish Leadership Team Manual, “Orienting and Training the Team.”
