Taking Communion Online
The Book of Common Prayer teaches us that if we offer ourselves in penitence and faith, giving thanks for the redemption won by Christ crucified, we may truly ‘eat and drink the Body and Blood of our Saviour Christ’, although we cannot receive the sacrament physically in ourselves.
Making a Spiritual Communion fulfils our duty set out in the church canons of receiving Holy Communion ‘regularly, and especially at the festivals of Christmas, Easter and Whitsun or Pentecost’ (Canon B15).
The Church to which we belong is not defined by the walls of a building but by the Body of Christ in which we are united with one another. In taking communion spiritually, we join with Christians everywhere to be nourished by the one who tells us, ‘I am the Bread of Life’.
