Welcome to Saint John’s

W e are blessed that you have joined us in our worship of Jesus Christ.

At Saint John’s we worship in the Anglican Tradition; fostering a

place where forgiveness, conversion and spiritual renewal can evolve;

enabling Christian formation to help us grow that our life may be

consecrated to God’s work. We pray that you have found us faithful in

our witness of His Love and you will make Saint John’s your spiritual

home.

Receiving Holy Communion

All visitors who have been baptized with water, in the name of the Father,

Son, and Holy Spirit, and who have been admitted to Communion in their

own church are welcome to share the Holy Eucharist. We are all called to

repent of our sins and to approach the Holy Communion as an expression

of the Real Presence of Jesus Christ. When you come forward to receive

the Holy Body and the Precious Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ please

approach the Altar Rail in prayer. Cross your right hand over your left

that the sacred Host may be laid in the palm of your right hand. When the

Chalice is offered help guide it (if necessary) to your lips. When your

communion is complete, pause to give thanks before returning to your

seat. If you are not receiving Communion today, you are most welcome to

come to the Altar Rail for a blessing; simply cross your arms over your

heart.

Ladies wearing lipstick, please remember to blot your lips before coming forward

for Communion if you desire to receive directly from the chalice. (If you generally

receive by intinction, of course, this is not necessary.) Thank you!

— St. John’s Altar Guild

If you receive Holy Communion by Intinction

If you make your communion by intinction (which is dipping the Host in

Consecrated Wine), our Bishop asks that you retain the Host in the palm

of your hand after receiving it and the priest, deacon or lay minister will

touch it to the Wine and place it on your tongue.

A Private Prayer before receiving Holy Communion

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, by the will of the Father and the

work of the Holy Spirit Your death brought life to the world. By Your

Holy Body and Blood free me from all my sins and from every evil. Keep

me faithful to Your teaching, and never let me be parted from You.

Amen.

A Private Prayer after receiving Holy Communion

Lord Jesus Christ, may I receive these precious gifts in purity of heart.

May Your Body and Blood bring me healing and strength, now and for

ever. Amen.
