An Act of Spiritual Communion

There are times when people are unable to receive the Body and Blood of Christ, through illness or due to their personal disposition. Even though some may not receive ‘sacramental’ Communion, all are united in some way by the Holy Spirit.
A deep spiritual communion is possible even when we do not share together the Sacrament of the Body and Blood of Christ. This desire to receive Jesus through spiritual Communion is an act of love which prolongs our thanksgiving even when we are not in the Eucharistic presence of Our Lord.
