LOW GLUTEN COMMUNION HOSTS AVAILABLE

We now have low gluten (less than .002% gluten) communion hosts available for people who have severe food allergies or celiac disease. Procedure for receiving these hosts at communion time is to identify yourself to one of the acolytes prior to Mass, or when you come up in the communion line, tell the extraordinary minister or the priest that you would like the special host.
