LECTORS: PLEASE CONTINUE TO PAUSE AFTER THE FIRST READING: AFTER YOU SAY “THE WORD OF THE LORD” COUNT TO ABOUT 5 SLOWLY BEFORE YOU PROCEED TO READ THE RESPONSORIAL PSALM, IF IT IS BEING READ AT YOUR MASS. IF IT IS BEING SUNG, JUST SIT DOWN BEFORE GOING BACK UP TO READ THE SECOND READING AS USUAL.

EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS: PLEASE DO NOT LET ONE PERSON TRY TO CARRY ALL THE CUPS AND VESSELS BACK ON THE SILVER TRAY. THIS IS POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS. ALSO, BE SURE TO TAKE ALL ITEMS OFF THE ALTAR WHEN CLEARING THE SANCTUARY.

REMEMBER THAT ONLY A PRIEST OR DEACON CAN PURIFY, THAT IS, CLEAN THE VESSELS OF ANY PRECIOUS BLOOD OR BODY OF CHRIST. ONCE PURIFIED, THOSE MINISTERS SCHEDULED CAN THEN WASH AND PUT AWAY THE VESSELS.

MINISTERS ARE STILL TO CONSUME ANY OF THE PRECIOUS BLOOD WHILE STILL ON THE ALTAR. PLEASE CALL IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

THANKS AGAIN FOR SERVING & GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!
