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.
If you require a Gluten-Free host, please indicate to the Brother administering Bread at Holy Communion if that is your preference.

Prayer after Communion
Presider Father,
People you restored us to life by raising your Son from death.
May we who receive this sacrament always be strengthened to do your will, in the name of Jesus Christ the risen Lord. Amen.
