From LIfeSite News article Sep/21/2020: "In June, 21 Austrian doctors quoted the professional opinion of Professor Filippo Maria Boscia, the president of the Association of Catholic Doctors of Italy who stated in May that “Communion on the tongue is safer than hand Communion.”" and "Furthermore, the medical doctors also point out that Switzerland never put a ban on Communion on the tongue and never experienced a spike in infections due to the practice of Communion on the tongue."

Please, we beg you to allow us to receive communion on the tongue out of the deepest respect and love of Jesus in the Eucharist.

Your Excellency, With all due respect and humility, I come as a beggar to you to give me back my Lord Jesus. My soul is desolate without Him. Dear Son of Mary, please reinstate immediately communion on the tongue! Hear the pleas of your flock! Gratefully yours, Carol Queener+

The desire to proclaim the Eucharist is our Lord in word AND action by means of the worldwide and historic STANDARD for reception should never be controversial. What does it say when it is?

Time to show unity, as our reverence and obedience, may be an example for others.

It is a sin to deny us this right and the Lord this respect. The Eucharist is GOD. He is ALL GOOD, all HOLY, ALL PURE. It is inconcevalbe that receiving HIM in any way would be detrimental to those distributing or receiving His Precious Body and Blood. The only one who will suffer from this lack of faith is you Archbishop. Please repent.

No medical transmission issue is by taking communion directly over tongue. Is a RESPIRATORY transmission by DROPLETS when cough, sneeze not by opening mouth. Mask is of small benefits. CHURCH should open need to heal, nurture soul. My medical opinion

“Out of reverence towards this sacrament [the Holy Eucharist], nothing touches it, but what is consecrated; hence the corporal and the chalice are consecrated, and likewise the priest's hands, for touching this sacrament." (St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica) “To touch the sacred species and to distribute them with their own hands is a privilege of the ordained.” (Dominicae Cenae, 11) "It is not permitted that the faithful should themselves pick up the consecrated bread and the sacred chalice, still less that they should hand them from one to another." (Saint Pope John Paul II, Inaestimabile Donum, April 17, 1980, sec. 9) Your Excellency, With all humility, this is Jesus! And we are starving for Him. Please allow the faithful to receive our Lord on the tongue.
