A number of years ago, a pastoral flare SUNDAY MASS up in New Jersey made the national news when presumably a Anticipatory (Saturday) 5:15 p.m. host made of rice was used during a first Holy Communion Sunday 8:00 a.m., 10:00 a.m., Noon, & 5:00 p.m. Mass, in order to accommodate the rare digestive disorder of DAILY MASS the intended recipient. To make matters worse, it was the Monday - Friday 7:30 a.m. & 5:15 p.m. little girl’s First Holy Communion. Here’s the pastoral question: “What Saturday 8:00 a.m. would you say to the girl who cannot receive the host in her church, while SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION her friends are all making their first Holy Communion?” As her mother Monday - Friday 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. said regarding the non-wheat host used at the girl’s later voided First Com- Saturday 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. munion: “How does it corrupt the tradition of the Last Supper?

Here, the bishop did Tuesday 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Wednesday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. his due diligence and sought clarification from Rome.

It is equally important to point out that for centuries the Church has maintained that she herself lacks the ability to alter certain teachings.

The words of institution (consecration) are known as the “form” of the sacrament. What is at stake here is not so much the seeming ‘insensitivity’ towards a first communicant, but rather a principle. If it is maintained that the Eu- SUNDAY STEWARDSHIP charist may be confected without wheat bread or wine, then it must neces- sarily follow that those elements are no longer essential to the sacrament.
