Fr. Bartel thinks the ministry is ideal for the elderly or homebound who he said make up a majority of his parish.
"It doesn't involve a great deal of time commitment or energy in terms of having to go places and do things," Fr. Bartel said."It's something that anyone can do."
The chalice at St. Elizabeth Seton is reserved until mid-year.Fr. Bartel and Bolduc would like to see more chalices in circulation at their parish and others in the diocese.
