BYZANTINE COMMUNION
Any Catholic in good standing with The Church may partake of The Eucharist in an Eastern Catholic Church.
1. Rather than wafers, we use small chunks of bread cut from a special loaf.
2. Approach the Priest, tilt head far back and open mouth wide (keeping tongue inside).
3. Priest will dip the now Consecrated Eucharist in Chalice and place it in your mouth.
We Love Visitors!
