When you come up to receive Our Lord for Holy Communion 
after the Priest/ Minister says, “The Body of Christ- Respond Amen.

Then remove your face covering in front of the Priest/ Minister
You can move the face covering down in front of your face or let it hang on one side of your face.

Then receive Holy Communion in front of the Priest/ Minister.
Put your face covering back on and return to your seat.

This will go a long way in preventing Our Lord from falling to the ground.

Please make sure that when you receive in the hand that you place one hand over the other. Please do not grab or take the host from the Priest/ Minister- Let us place the Sacred Host in your hand.
Also, no gloves, rosary beads should be in your hands
when receiving Our Lord.

We thank you for your cooperation as we navigate through maintaining our Worship and keeping everyone safe.
