Welcome to Grace Episcopal Church!
Sunday Service 10am
News from Bishop Sean
Bishop Sean would like the practice of the common cup to return at communion. For intinction, the Bishop would like clergy or Eucharistic ministers to intinct the bread in the wine (as we have been.)
At Grace we'll have the common cup, as well as the option for intinction. People can signify their preference:
- Both hands extended to receive the bread and common cup
- One hand extended, the other crossed over the chest to receive the intincted host (we thought this makes sense, as it’s a somewhat familiar gesture - both hands crossed over chest indicates a desire not to receive communion, but a blessing.) As we do at Grace, we’ll give it a try, learn, and adapt as needed.
