Pandemic will alter Communion rituals for many Christians David Crary/Associated Press/May 19, 2020/Star Tribune
“New York – Holy Communion will have a different look when in-person worship services resume at the end of
May in the Catholic Diocese of Knoxville, Tennessee. The wafers signifying the body of Christ will be placed in the hands of parishioners by priests and deacons wearing face masks and safety glasses.
Similarly striking changes in Communion will take place at Catholic and Protestant churches across the United States over coming weeks as restrictions on large gatherings – imposed because of the coronavirus outbreak – are gradually eased. Many charges that formerly encouraged churchgoers to drink wine from a communal cup will halt that practice, at least temporarily. In some cases, clergy will be instructed to use hand sanitizer before commencing with the sacrament. The Episcopal bishop of Washington, DC, Mariann Budde, said she and about 60 of her fellow bishops will meet Wednesday to discuss possible adjustments to Communion and other worship. “I do think new practices emerge from crises like this,” she said. “They come from communities experimenting, pushing boundaries. You don’t know how this will turn out.”
The biggest denomination in the US, the Catholic Church accounts for the bulk of Holy Communion services nationwide. Under its governance system, decisions on logistical details of Communion are largely left to individual bishops. Over the past three weeks, at least two sets of guidelines have been issued to Catholic clergy by high-level bodies. There’s one main difference: the guidelines from the Washington-based Thomistic Institute says communion wafers could continue to be placed on a parishioner’s tongue or placed in the hand. Guidelines from the Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions says there should be a temporary ban on receiving the wafer on the tongue.
Knoxville Bishop Richard Stika, in his detailed instructions for the resumption of in-person services, was clear on this point. Reception of the wafer on the tongue “is strictly prohibited at this time,” his instructions say. Churchgoers are instructed to proceed single file – and six feet apart – to a designation distribution point in their church and then receive the Communion wafer in an outstretched palm. There will be no wine for them. The priest or deacon will wear a face mask and safety glasses during the sacrament, Stika says. Churchgoers will be instructed to wear face masks throughout the Mass that they should remove only for the moment they receive and consume the wafer.
At St. Rose de Lima Catholic Church in Chicopee, Massachusetts, Pastor William Tourigny is awaiting word from state officials on when in-person services can resume, but he’s already made decisions about Communion. Early in the coronavirus outbreak, he prohibited the “on the tongue” option, sticking by the decision despite complaints from some congregants. As for parishioners drinking Communion wine from a communal cup, Tourigny says he eliminated that during the H1N1 flu outbreak of 2009. Drinking from a communal cup was in practice prior to the pandemic at Saint Ambrose Catholic Church in Brunswick, Ohio, but that will be halted when in-person services resume, said the pastor, Rev. Bob Stec. Receiving the wafer on the tongue will still be permitted, but only for churchgoers who insist on it. “While it is still their option, we would ask them to receive in the hand as a way of offering care and support for the ministers,” Stec said via email.
In the Archdiocese of Chicago, longtime church-goer Mary Anne Hackett, as president of Catholic Citizens of Illinois, has been urging Cardinal Blasé Cupich to move more quickly to reopen churches. She says most Catholic churches in the area served the Communion wafer on the tongue, not to the hand, but she’s open to whatever policy might be implemented. “The people will be so happy to return to church that they’ll be ready to comply with whatever the priests asks,” she said.
Among Catholic and Protestant congregations, there has been lively debate over certain Communion practices employed while in-person services were banned. Some pastors administered drive-thru Communion to congregants arriving at outdoor venues in their cars. Among United Methodist Church bishops, there was disagreement as to the propriety of celebrating Communion during online services.

BE AT PEACE
By Saint Francis de Sales Do not look forward in fear to the changes in life; rather, look to them with full hope that as they arise. God, whose very own you are, will lead you safely though all things; and when you cannot stand it, god will carry you in His arms. Do not fear what may happen tomorrow; the same understanding Father who care for you today will take care of you then and everyday. He will either shield you from suffering or will give you unfailing strength to bear it. Be at peace, and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginations.
PADRE’S CORNER CONTINUED The president of the UMC’s Council of Bishops,
Cynthia Fierro Harvey of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, said Communion practices vary from church to church. Some serve grape juice in small individual cups along with a wafer or a piece of bread; in other churches worshippers dip their bread into a communal cup in a process known as intinction.
Harvey said many UMC churches might choose not to serve Communion at first when in-person worship resumes, then would grapple with decisions such as whether to eliminate intinction.
The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, with about 3.5 million members one of the largest mainline Protestant denominations, recently issued guidelines on Communion and other matters to help its 9,300 resume in-person services. The guidelines recommend against serving Communion until gatherings of more than 50 people are allowed. The people administering the sacraments are asked to use hand sanitizer immediately before doing so, preferably in full view of the congregation.
“Common cup and intinction are not recommended,” the guidelines say. “If distributing wine in small glasses in trays, ensure that the glasses are spaced far enough apart to minimize people’s touching of other glasses.” The ELCA’s presiding bishop, Elizabeth Eaton, said the recommendations are not binding and decisions are left to individual pastors.
Mariann Budde, the Episcopal bishop of Washington, said most churches in her diocese traditionally used communal cup for distribution of the Communion wine. She says that practice will almost certainly be halted, at least in the early stages of resumed in-person worship. We can’t do some of the things that make that sacrament familiar to us,” she said. “That doesn’t mean the presence of Christ isn’t with you.”
Debate over Communion practice extends to Christian communities worldwide. In Ghana, the Pentecostal church attracted attention by opting to serve pieces of Communion bread speared with appetizer-style toothpicks.” PONDERINGS FROM FATHER BILL The repositioning of communal procedures are in full practice since this article was written. My guess is that they will continue into the long-range future, as viruses and the flu will remain as threats to healthcare. Saint Ambrose 1900 years ago asked Christians “to extend your hand like a throne about to receive a King (Eucharistic Jesus)”. Reception on the tongue is unsanitary in these troubled times, as is the cup for reception of the Precious Blood. Jesus is present body, soul, and blood in the Eucharist: Listening to the words of Scripture necessarily replaces paper missalettes for the same reasons. Thanks for your patient understanding. Fr. Bill
Pope Francis’s Prayer to Mary During Coronavirus Pandemic O Mary, you always shine on our path as a sign of salvation and of hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who at the cross took part in Jesus’ pain, keeping your faith firm. You, Salvation of Your People, know what we need, and we are sure you will provide so that, as in Cana of Galilee, we may return to you and to feasting after this time of trial. Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by Jesus, who has taken upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows to lead us, through the cross, to the joy of the resurrection. Amen. Under your protection, we seek refuge, Holy Mother of God. Do not disdain the entreaties of we who are in trial, but deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.
“Hold fast to the rudder of faith, that you may not be shaken by the heavy storms of this world.” Saint Ambrose of Milan “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” Helen Keller
