Many today have reduced receiving Holy Communion to a mere sign of hospitality such that, if the Church does not extend the Eucharist to one and all, we are unkind and inhospitable. Others think of receiving Holy Communion as an encounter with Christ but do not embrace full communion with His Body, the Church. In this presentation, Msgr. Pope explores the deeper meaning behind receiving Holy Communion, and explains the admonition that we receive the Eucharist worthily lest we bring condemnation upon ourselves. Learn why limiting the Sacrament to practicing Catholics in a state of grace is both wise and charitable.
