Sacraments 101: Eucharist (how we receive)

  • BustedHalo.com's fantastic introduction to the Sacraments series.
    Join Fr. Dave Dwyer, CSP, as he explains the do's and don'ts and rights and wrongs of receiving Communion...
    Should Catholics receive communion on the hand or on the tongue? And how exactly are we supposed to do that reverently? Is there any other acceptable response besides "Amen?" ...and what does "amen" mean anyway?
    These questions and more are answered in this edition of "Sacraments 101," a web video series geared for those who'd like an introduction or refresher course on these important, tangible Catholic experiences of God.
    The Church calls the Eucharist the "summit and source of our faith," so it would seem pretty important to understand the basics about receiving this sacrament when we go to Mass.

    Recieve it in a state of grace, confession first is very important, before receiving it the hearts must no envy, no hatred, no grudges no resentment, must be really sorry for the sins commit, God will provide and help even our sins dark as night, red as blood, good and great God will make it white as snow if we really repent with sincere heart...

    Mass in Latin, women wearing mantillas, at the communion rail, kneeling hands under the altar cloth, communion on the tongue.

      Ummm... No.
      Ever heard of Cyril of Jerusalem and his catechesis On the Mysteries?
      No. V.21: "In approaching therefore, come not with your wrists extended, or your fingers spread; *but make your left hand a throne for the right, as for that which is to receive a King. And having hollowed your palm, receive the Body of Christ, saying over it, Amen. So then after having carefully hallowed your eyes by the touch of the Holy Body, partake of it; giving heed lest you lose any portion thereof* ; for whatever you lose, is evidently a loss to you as it were from one of your own members. For tell me, if any one gave you grains of gold, would you not hold them with all carefulness, being on your guard against losing any of them, and suffering loss? Will you not then much more carefully keep watch, that not a crumb fall from you of what is more precious than gold and precious stones?" (www.newadvent.org/fathers/310123.htm)
      Soooo... Innovation you said?
      Actually, communion rail, communion on the tongue and only in the species of bread is a medieval innovation, caused by a fear of unworthy reception of the Eucharist.

    This is a much better way of communicating at the how-tos. I have really bad experiences at receiving being scolded by ministers who were in charge of passing the communion, she even raised her voice in front of everyone "Are you even Catholic?! THEN SAY AMEN HELLO?" because I did not reply "Amen" when she announced "The Body of Christ." I genuinely had no bad intentions, I listened to the readings and sermon. Thing is I have not received since I was a child, I have asked them prior whether are there are prerequisites/know-hows/ refreshers because I don't want to be humiliated like that if I received wrongly. They even made a point to approach me again after while the mass was still going in in front of everyone, harshly scolding to properly must swallow in front of the minister, not to take the communion away. OK, great, with this many rules, and with that kind of expectations I expect a better way to communicate it. But what's happened happened and that's on them. Not very Christly in my opinion. What a turn off, the very people who preach to be forgiving are not the very forgiving people. I approached them after for their behavior because I was truly offended and felt humiliated, and they said this is because a lot of people are abusing the body of Jesus. Well I did not have that intention at the very least, and I wouldn't know why someone that would abuse the body of Jesus would come to church in the first place. They just looked at me and didn't even occur to them that they were rude, human to human.

    Very nice, I had to be prompted this morning when I was due to go and get the gifts with my fellow parishioner at mass and I realise now I should get ready to do this as soon as the priest has gone to the front of the altar--- after the Prayer of the Faithful. I have not been asked to do this before at a morning mass so this was my excuse, but it was lovely to take part, and help to bring the host to become consecrated.

    • St. Basil the Great, Doctor of the Church (330-379): “The right to receive Holy Communion in the hand is permitted only in times of persecution.” St. Basil the Great considered Communion in the hand so irregular that he did not hesitate to consider it a grave fault.
    • The Council of Saragossa (380): Excommunicated anyone who dared continue receiving Holy Communion by hand. This was confirmed by the Synod of Toledo.
    • The Synod of Rouen (650): Condemned Communion in the hand to halt widespread abuses that occurred from this practice, and as a safeguard against sacrilege.
    • 6th Ecumenical Council, at Constantinople (680-681): Forbade the faithful to take the Sacred Host in their hand, threatening transgressors with excommunication.
    • St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274): “Out of reverence towards this Sacrament [the Holy Eucharist], nothing touches it, but what is consecrated; hence the corporal and the chalice are consecrated, and likewise the priest’s hands, for touching this Sacrament.” (Summa Theologica, Part III, Q. 82, Art. 3, Rep. Obj. 8.)
    • Pope Paul VI (1963-1978): “This method [on the tongue] must be retained.” (Memoriale Domini)
    • Pope John Paul II: “To touch the sacred species and to distribute them with their own hands is a privilege of the ordained.” (Dominicae Cenae, 11)
    • Mother Teresa: "Wherever I go in the whole world, the thing that makes me the saddest is watching people receive Communion in the hand."
    • Cardinal Robert Sarah, Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship 2018: “Widespread Communion in the hand is part of Satan’s attack on the Eucharist.” Further, “The most insidious diabolical attack consists in trying to extinguish faith in the Eucharist, by sowing errors and fostering an unsuitable way of receiving it.”

      "In approaching therefore, come not with your wrists extended, or your fingers spread; but make your left hand a throne for the right, as for that which is to receive a King. And having hollowed your palm, receive the Body of Christ, saying over it, Amen. So then after having carefully hallowed your eyes by the touch of the Holy Body, partake of it; giving heed lest you lose any portion thereof ; for whatever you lose, is evidently a loss to you as it were from one of your own members. For tell me, if any one gave you grains of gold, would you not hold them with all carefulness, being on your guard against losing any of them, and suffering loss? Will you not then much more carefully keep watch, that not a crumb fall from you of what is more precious than gold and precious stones?" (www.newadvent.org/fathers/310123.htm)

    If you persecute (slander) the Church, you persecute (slander) Jesus. When St. Paul was persecuting Christians (all Catholics, because there were no other Christians at the time, or for another 1500 years), Jesus asked him why he was persecuting Him (Jesus), not the Church. Why? Because Jesus IS the Church. So go ahead... slander all you want. You will answer for it when you meet your Maker.
    And by the way, if you use the Bible to try to dispute Catholic teachings, remember, you're using a CATHOLIC Book to do it! EVERY New Testament author was Catholic and the entire canon was decided by the Catholic Church. If it wasn't for the Church, we wouldn't even have a Bible, let alone know anything about Jesus or anything He taught.

I know Jesus was born, but it doesn't say the time of year except the shepherd were out in the field (not that likely in December in Israel). Also, Jesus did die on Passover, buried on the feast of unleavened bread and rose again on first fruits, but can't find any mention of easter. Lent - can't find that at all - nor catholic.

The Pope of then and others wrote an Cyclical condemning that act? Something seems wrong with the messages today about this point or are the Popes' Past warnings not to change the Mass and Reception of the Eucharist now ignored? Reception comes from the heart, a love for our Lord and God. This Priest does not sound correct in my opinion and the preparation for reception even in that moment of our act to recieve.

What has happened to the 7 Sacraments in the New Catholic Church (Post Vatican II). For example, Confession is no longer private? Who wrote the Catechism for the New Catholic Church (Vatican II). Why is there a movement among the New Catholic Church Bishops to do away with the Traditional Latin Mass? Even to those Priest holding to it are be put on sabbaticals, retired, or excommunicated.Indeed, for a Catholic you maybe subscribing to Protestantism and not realize it.

      The key to your concern is look up Jesuit imposter Pope Paul VI. He and others physically incapacitated the real Pope and Pushed through Vatican II which was a long series of legal loopholes to try to weaken and Protestantize the Catholic Church to make it fit in with the NWO. Everyone associates Jesuits with Catholics but Ignatious Loyola was a crypto-jew. I believe it was a way for the Jews to go around doing evil in the world and allowing the blame to fall on the Catholics. They have Satanic Cabals at the top levels of everything at this point. So they can conduct their Satanic Covert Cold War from all sides at once and everyone will be confused about who is to blame. I suspect that is the meaning behind their chess board black and white floors in their freemasonic temples. Also notice Paul's signature he does it so it looks like 666 when it's upside down. Martin Luther was also a cryptojew as well as Oliver Cromwell and King Henry the VIII. I have nothing against Mosaic or Messianic Jews neither do the Muslims it is the Zionists that everyone is after including the Jews. Go on youtube and pull up video after video of Jews in Jerusalem protesting Zionists or Zionism.

    According to Maria the holy souls have revealed to her the following:
    -That priests and nuns should always wear their habits/clerics, in as much as possible.
    -That Extraordinary Eucharistic Ministers should be used very rarely, that is, only when it is absolutely necessary; that priests and deacons should make every effort to distribute Communion to the faithful, even though it takes longer to do so.
    - That receiving Holy Communion in the hand should be avoided as much as possible.
    -That holding hands during the Lords prayer and that the sign of peace after the Eucharistic prayer should be avoided in as much as it is possible, since both of these are a distraction from Jesus who is present upon the altar and that we should be concentrating upon Jesus alone during this important time of the Mass.
    -That dogs are the most hated animals by the devil and the demons because they are the closest and most helpful animal to mankind.
    -That outside of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph is one of the greatest Saints who advocates for the souls in Purgatory. The Angels, especially St Michael the archangel, and also the poor souls own guardian angel are also very powerful in helping to obtain mercy and pleading their cause before God. Also very important is any Saint that the person might have had a devotion to during one’s lifetime. Maria also pointed out that the Patron Saint of the poor souls in purgatory is St Nicholas of Tolentino
    -The holy souls have also revealed to Maria that it is on Christmas day that the most souls are released from purgatory and then also Good Friday, Ascension day, All Souls day and the feast of the Assumption.

THE OPTION WHICH WAS SUGGESTED AND UNFORTUNATELY WIDESPREAD BY THE SYNOD OF AMERICAN BISHOPS is standing up and in the hand. THE NORM OR RULE WILL ALWAYS REMAIN THE RULE WHICH IS THE ONE PASSED ON THROUGHOUT CENTURIES. BISHOP ARIUS MADE THIS RECEIVING OF THE LORD IN THE HAND VERY WIDESPREAD AS WELL MANY CENTURIES AGO. WHICH CAUSED THE LOSS OF FAITH IN MANY PEOPLE AS IT IS HAPPENING ONCE AGAIN TODAY. THAT WAS CERTAINLY NOT THE ONLY OCCURRENCE, BUT IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR RECORDED IN HISTORY. SO PLEASE CHECK THE HOLY SEE'S DIRECTIVES BEFORE MISINFORMING CATHOLICS.
    WE ARE EITHER WITH JESUS OR AGAINST JESUS. Let the faithful follow the true Doctrine of the Magisterium so they remain faithful as so many have fallen into the fallacies of the devil nowadays, stop the impious acts against the Lord as the payment for such acts is eternal damnation, word of the Lord himself. We need to come out of our ignorance (Os 4: 6) and stand up for the truth even if it costs our own demise due to persecution inside our Holy Catholic and Apostolic church. God bless and may all impiety and faithless acts end soon.
