      Exactly! We also don’t need communion ministers. Communion rails are the solution to this too. I rather wait for everyone to receive Our Lord in the tongue from the priest than save a few minutes and have communion ministers.

      Do you ever wonder why that changed? It was done by receiving communion on the tongue while kneeling behind the communion rail for hundreds of years. Then very quickly was changed to receiving in the hand while standing.

      The priest who pastored my home parish, who was known to know the most amongst his brother priests about all things Catholic, taught us it is redundant to make the sign of the cross after receiving communion. By the very act of receiving the Holy Eucharist you are uniting yourself with our Holy Trinity, One God. Your 'Amen' already expresses your belief.

    As an Extraordinary Eucharistic Minister, my FIRST suggestion is.....FIRE US MINISTERS! Let the ORDINARY MINISTERS, the priests, give out ALL Communion. Even if it takes an extra 10 minutes. No one attending Holy Mass is that busy. SECOND, NO COMMUNION IN THE HAND! It fosters disrespect. Third, use the Communion Rails. KNEEL to recieve Our Lord, you will on your judgement day. Do all three, and belief in the REAL PRESENCE will skyrocket. It's at 30% now, a dismal testimony to our faith and catachesis since Vatican II.

    I never could figure out why the Catholics can't drink the wine after they eat the wafer.i don't understand why the priest can't just hand the congregation the wafer so they could put it in their own mouths.

    Stop trying to be ‘so cool’ and start trying to be holy. This is disrespectful of the priesthood.

      I disagree. Being a priest is cool. He shows that a person can be holy and have a joyful life, too.

    In the hand!??? So we dont really believe that its jesus blood and flesh? I will never attend a mass celebrated by you

      His masses are still valid, its still the body and blood of Christ that we receive. Ultimately he cannot say "no receiving on the hand" because of the modern way people receive communion. The priest can't force everyone to receive on the tongue; Unfortunately. I always receive on the tongue, but Vatican 2 was misinterpreted by lay-people and here we are.

    No Communion rails~!!! Communion in the hand--may it always be an option. Communion on the tongue is awkward and unsanitary.
