<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I am going through adult confirmation & communion on the Sat. before Easter. Yesterday, I found out that part of the regular communion ceremony is that the priest breaks off a piece of a communion host & drops it into the wine that everyone receives. This is done as a symbol of unity. Apparently, it is quite common. Tentatively, I am going to bring a small piece of my GF bread to receive for communion. They have told me that this will be OK. I have talked to my instructor about it, she had never heard of anything like Celiac Disease. I had thought it would be fine for me to have a sip of the wine until I found out about this dropping of host into the wine. Any opinions on this? I've been waiting for so long to take communion & I am worried about also not getting sick afterward. Thanks for any help you can give.
