SUNDAY/RITUALS
SUNDAY PRAYER
Take a half hour to follow the ritual posted in the link. Pray through the readings and then make an act of Spiritual Communion. In a Catholic News Agency article, Pope Francis explains, "A spiritual communion is a uniting of oneself to the Sacrifice of the Mass through prayer, and can be made whether one is able to receive Communion or not." To read the full article, click here. Here is a FORMED video on what Spiritual Communion is to!
