Msgr. Charlie Brown has shared this Spiritual Communion Prayer:"
“My Jesus, I believe that you’re present in the Holy Sacrament. I love You above all else, and I desire You in my soul. As long as I can’t receive You sacramentally, at least enter spiritually into my soul.” (brief pause to unite oneself with Jesus) “Since you’ve come, I embrace you and unite my entire self with You; don’t let me ever separate myself from You.”
UPDATE (March 20) - FROM THE OFFICE OF THE BISHOP:Effective immediately, funerals may take place only in the form of "The Rite of Committal with Final Commendation" (also known as the "graveside"). It is recommended that the parish offer a memorial Mass at a later date when the restriction against public Mass are lifted. Please note that no more than 10 people should be present at the graveside ritual and that social distancing guidelines should be followed.
Msgr. Hopkins wants to assure you of his continuing concern and prayer.
