2…Those who are not fully vaccinated against COVID-19 should continue to follow State of RI Guidelines in regard to the use of a mask.

4…While using the Breaking Bread Missalettes/Hymnals, please be mindful that others have used them and will be using them before and after you.

5. Those who will be receiving Holy Communion in the palm of their hand are encouraged to use hand sanitizer prior to approaching the altar.

6…When receiving Holy Communion in the palm of your hand, please place your non-dominant hand on top of your dominant hand and be sure that you make as flat a surface as possible. Thereafter, to minimize the possibility of contact between the communicant and minister, please allow the minister to not only place the Sacred Host in the palm of your hand but to also retract his or her fingers before you begin to move your own hands or fingers.

7. As related to the reception of Holy Communion on the tongue, all should be aware that even if there is no contact made between the communicant and the minister, hand sanitizier will be used by the minister following the distribution of the Eucharist on the tongue.

Thanks in advance for your
