Are you aware of all the ways in which you can pray? Father Chris explains vocal prayers, meditation, contemplation, the Liturgy of the Hours, and much more.

A big issue today is whether to receive Holy Communion on the tongue or in the hand. Church documents state that receiving on the tongue is desired, but according to the “General Instruction of the Roman Missal,” the consecrated Host may be received either on the tongue or in the hand at the discretion of each communicant. Father Chris Alar, MIC reveals there is much more to add to the discussion.

Lo, the day is coming, blazing like an oven, when all the proud and all evildoers will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire, leaving them neither root nor branch, says the LORD of hosts. But for you who fear my name, there will arise the sun of justice with its healing rays.- Malachi 3:19-20a
