Archbishop Shelton Fabre has announced that the Archdiocese will reinstate permission to distribute the Precious Blood to the faithful from the Chalice at weekend Masses on the Feast of Corpus Christi, June 10-11, 2023. Since 1978, the Bishops of the United States have encouraged the distribution of the Precious Blood regularly, noting that this “is the fullest sign and most perfect fulfillment of what the Lord did and directed.” As always, reception from the Chalice is optional and those who are ill, infirm, or have compromised immune systems should be reassured that our Church also teaches that Jesus Christ is truly and wholly present under both species of bread and wine.
Our parish and the Archdiocese, especially through The Record newspaper, is using this opportunity to provide you with renewed catechesis on the precious gift of Jesus Christ that we have been given in the Holy Eucharist.
