in the host.


**The full Body and Blood of Christ is contained in both species, bread and wine. So, you only need to receive under one species. I don't receive the cup.
You are allowed to receive the cup however, in which case you will say "Amen" and very carefully receive the cup from the priest (or, more likely, some old bat who calls herself a Eucharistic Minister) and very reverently take a sip, then give the cup back.

or, in addition... from the chalice:
1. bow
2. the deacon (or other suitable Eucharistic Minister.. or, sadly in most cases the Extraordinary Eucharistic Minister) says: "The Blood of Christ"
3. respond: "Amen."
4. reverently take the chalice and take a sip, and then carefully hand the chalice back to the deacon (or other suitable.... etc.)

thanks so much!! hey one more thing, do you have to do anything before you're "qualified" to receive the blood of Christ? (like first communion, i guess)

if you can receive the host (i.e., you are of age (/have received your first communion) and are free from mortal sin), than you can receive from the chalice if it is offered (some parishes don't offer the chalice to the laity).

It's called Intinction (I don't think that is spelled right)
They do that at the Poor Clare Monastery. They are Latin Rite.
