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.
