faithcecelia Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I had to laugh when being shown the communion hosts production while at Notting Hill. Every so often, they cook up a batch of pink hosts!! Okay, so its because they need to identify the bottom ones from each cutting as they are always rough around the edge and cant be sold, but I can't help but imagining how cool it would be if Jesus were to come to me in a pink host Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 To match or complement the green, pink, and lavender habits recently mentioned on board? If the priest tried to give me a pink host, I would think it carried salmonella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faithcecelia Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 Just to clarify, they are dyed pink so thay they are [i]not[/i] used and can be picked out easily, but I would do a special happy dance if the Church did suddenly decide hosts should be pink!

Luigi Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I think that hosts should be dyed to match the color of the liturgical season. Just as a reminder that, for instancem "We're in Lent now," or "This is ordinary time." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Its only so they [i]aren't[/i] used - the pink colour means the bottom layer of the 73 sheets cut together can be picked out easily and disposed of, rather than risking sub-standard, rough hosts being sent out.

krissylou Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 The thing about liturgical colors reminded me of something. Faith, in Notting Hill will you have a prescribed postulant uniform? 'Cause if you don't, I'm reminded of a newsletter from the Carmel near me. Talking about their postulant-at-the-time, she would coordinate her clothing to the liturgical season, 'cause, well, she could! And once she had this amazing skirt with lots of trees and animals on it -- for Earth Day! This was a delight to the nuns (who wear full habits). You should do that.
