Anastasia13 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) Pwnage. Funny. I think I was just reading something earlier today about how people have not gotten sick from receiving from chalice like that at church. I wonder how much difference this will actually make.

PhuturePriest Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Pwnage. Funny. I think I was just reading something earlier today about how people have not gotten sick from receiving from chalice like that at church. I wonder how much difference this will actually make. The parish I go to mostly consists of elderly people and if there is a major problem with sickness Father will just not offer the wine at all. I remember once it took months before he finally started using it again. I guess that particular strand of flue just took its time leaving.

Nihil Obstat Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Looks like our bishop is not planning on forbidding Communion on the tongue this flu season. :| Maybe someone told him he is not allowed to do that, after that last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groo the Wanderer Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) yes! since we have no bishop right now :cry: the pastoral administrator has no authority to change the status quo. so...it is up to the individual pastors. ours said nope - keeping it real for now.
