REMINDER: Advice for Wine at Holy Communion
From Maundy Thursday onwards you will be able to receive both bread and wine at Holy Communion if you wish. Please bear in mind the following:
You should not feel pressured into receiving the wine unless you feel comfortable to do so.
You must not 'intinct' the wafer, i.e. if you are going to receive the wine, you must drink from the chalice, not dip your wafer into it. Whilst this seems simple, it can dirty the wine, as well as contaminate the wine for those who require gluten-free communion.
Please do not receive the wine if you are unwell; our advice is still to stay at home if you are sick--for whatever reason.
You do not have to be consistent. If you would like to receive one week, and not the next, that is fine. There will be no judgment on your spiritual practice.
