A Note about Holy Communion Please refrain from intinction (dipping the Bread into the Chalice). If you wish to abstain from receiving from the Chalice, remember that the Church catholic has always taught that the fullness of the Sacrament is received even when only one form is received.

Please indicate to the Brother administering Bread at Holy Communion if you require a gluten-free Host.

Prayer after Communion Presider

Author of life divine,

People

in the breaking of bread we know the risen Lord.

Feed us always in these mysteries, that we may show your glory to all the world.

We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
