STAY CONNECTED - Online Resources to Help During Isolation

“May the God to whom we turn in this moment listen to the pleading of our heart and answer as he has so often before,
so that love may come from fear, hope from despair and joy from sorrow.” 

​
The Most Reverend Mark Coleridge

ACTS OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION
The following is food for thought at this time when, all around the world, people are unable to personally be present at Mass due to illness, quarantine, or community Health policies in response to the Coronavirus.  Spiritual Communion is a powerful and ancient practice that is of enormous comfort in times of trial and isolation.
It has long been a Catholic understanding that when circumstances prevent one from receiving Holy Communion, it is possible to make an Act of Spiritual Communion which is a source of grace. Spiritual Communion means uniting one’s self in prayer with Christ’s sacrifice and worshipping him in his Body and Blood. The most common reason for making an Act of Spiritual Communion is when a person cannot attend Mass. Acts of Spiritual Communion increase our desire to receive sacramental Communion and help us avoid the sins that would make us unable to receive Holy Communion worthily.

Prayer for Spiritual Communion:
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love you above all things and I desire to receive you in my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally, Come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you. Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.
