The NEW normal for Church Communion-Pre Filled Communion cups in USA
Holy Communion will have a different look when in-person worship services resume at the end of May in the Christian Churches: The wafers signifying the body of Christ will be sealed in the all in one pre filled communion cup.
Many churches that formerly encouraged churchgoers to drink wine from a communal cup will halt that practice, at least temporarily and use The Miracle Meal pre packaged communion cup. The all in one sealed communion cup offer a safe and hygienic alternative to the traditional means of communal sharing.
Drinking from a communal cup was in practice prior to the pandemic at Saint Ambrose Catholic Church in Brunswick, Ohio, but that will be halted and replaced with a pre filled communion single serving cup. “Common cup and intinction are not recommended,” the guidelines say. “If distributing wine in small glasses in trays, ensure that the glasses are spaced far enough apart to minimize people’s touching of other glass.
The people will be so happy to return to church that they’ll be ready to comply with whatever new communion options are available.
