If you prefer not to drink from the cup, you may hold your bread until the chalice minister offers the wine. Simply give the bread to the chalice minister who will dip the bread in the wine and give it to you, or you may dip the bread in the chalice. You may choose to take only the bread, and this is perfectly acceptable. All who seek God are welcome at this table. If you wish to receive communion, you are welcome to come forward.
Ushers assist in directing people to the front.
Should you have questions about how to receive communion, ask the usher. If you are unable to come forward and wish to receive, please let an usher know, and the Eucharistic ministers will come to you. Our Offering At the time of the offering, ushers bring forward the bread and wine for our communion and pass the offering plates to the congregation. Contributions in any amount are always welcome. It is also a time to offer silently to God our joys and our griefs.
