ST. PETER THE APOSTLE
CANONICAL- LITURGICAL FORUM
BY FR. GEM BANDIVAS, JCL, MBA, PhD
GIVING MORE THAN ONE HOST TO A COMMUNICANT
QUESTION1: In your bulletin article of 04/16/17, you
eloquently discussed the possibility of receiving the Most
Holy Eucharist again on the same day but only within a
Eucharistic Celebration in which the person participates.
My question is whether or not a communicant is permitted
to receive more than one Eucharistic host at a time. The
issue came up because when taking Communion to the
sick in a nursing home, sometimes the people who were
on the list to receive Communion do not receive for
various reasons e.g., physical inability to receive due to
an upset stomach, or mental confusion such that they do
not recognize Jesus in the Eucharist. Since the
Communion distributor does not have a key to return the
extra host to the locked church, would it be allowed to give
two hosts at once to someone else who can receive? Also,
what about breaking the host into smaller pieces when the
same is lacking for quite a number of communicants?
Your comment please
Linda, Parishioner
QUESTION2: A Eucharistic minister from another parish
claimed to have been told by the pastor that if any hosts
were left after making sick rounds, she could take the host
home, as long as she put it in a decent place and inside a
metal container. Is this permissible or acceptable?
Stephanie, Parishioner
ANSWER1: In response to the questions of Linda, I am,
honestly, not aware of any particular norms that strictly prohibit
someone from doing this. While it is customary to give a single
host only to each communicant, there can be variations
according to particular necessity and I believe a good common
sense solution can be applied here.
For example, if more people turn up for Mass than the
number of hosts that were consecrated or reserved in the
tabernacle, then the priest or minister could well decide to
break the small hosts into two so that all could receive
Communion. Likewise, it is quite common for a minister of Holy
Communion to use only a small fragment of a host for the sick
who have difficulty swallowing.
In such cases Communion should usually be placed
directly on the tongue, since once a host has been broken it is
easier for tiny particles to fall off.
The underlying theological principle here is that Christ is
fully present, body, blood, soul and divinity, in each part of the
broken host that is administered as Communion.
If this is true for a broken host, it should also remain true
for more than one host. A priests communion is not somehow
more than that of the rest of the faithful because he partakes of
the larger host, nor would a member of the faithful be more
united to Christ if on some occasion he or she happened to
receive two hosts.
There might be a subjective experience in which even a
saintly soul might feel mortified at receiving half a host or joyful
at receiving two, but there is no difference in the order of grace
HENDERSON, NV Pg.5
or of union with God.
Normally, if there are some hosts left over after
Communion and there is no tabernacle to reserve them, then
the priest would consume them himself before purifying the
sacred vessels. There are, however, some situations in which a
priest at Mass might opt to give out more than one host to the
faithful. An example would be if the Mass is held in a place with
no tabernacle and he foresees before distributing Communion
that the number of hosts exceeds what he can consume with
the necessary dignity and respect for the Eucharist. Another
case would be if there is a need to leave the tabernacle empty
or almost empty after Mass, such as during Holy Week in
preparation for the Mass of the Lords Supper on Holy
Thursday, which is celebrated with an empty tabernacle.
In such cases it is better to tell the faithful in advance
that they might be receiving two hosts, as it can be a distraction
to them if it happens unexpectedly and might disturb the fervor
of the moment of receiving Communion. It has also happened
that some people think the priest has made a mistake and they
attempt to return the extra host to the ciborium.
In hospital and care situations such as those described
by our reader, the same rule basically applies. The minister can
give two hosts to any other communicant if it is not feasible to
return the hosts to the tabernacle. Once more, the person
should be told in advance so as to avoid a surprised reaction.
ANSWER2: With the regards to Stephanies query, the short
answer is no. Canon law is quite specific on this point: Canon
935 states: No one is permitted to keep the Eucharist on ones
person or to carry it around, unless pastoral necessity urges it
and the prescripts of the diocesan bishop are observed.
Canon 938, 1 stipulates: The Most Holy Eucharist is to
be reserved habitually in only one tabernacle of a church or
oratory.
2. The tabernacle in which the Most Holy Eucharist is
reserved is to be situated in some part of the church or oratory
which is distinguished, conspicuous, beautifully decorated, and
suitable for prayer.
3. The tabernacle in which the Most Holy Eucharist is
reserved habitually is to be immovable, made of solid and
opaque material, and locked in such a way that the danger of
profanation is avoided as much as possible.
4. For a grave cause, it is permitted to reserve the
Most Holy Eucharist in some other fitting and more secure
place, especially at night.
Although Canon 935, in speaking of pastoral
necessity, and Canon 938.4 might appear to give some
leeway, and perhaps this is what the pastor was thinking of, I
would say that it is not really a good solution. In this case there
is no real pastoral necessity that requires the host to be outside
a tabernacle during the night, and the secure place referred to
in the other canon means more secure than the tabernacle
itself, a situation that is unlikely in a private residence.
