Gluten Free and participating in Communion


We have such a wonderful church that has really worked with us so that those who are gluten free can still participate in Holy Communion.

My son just received his First Eucharist a couple of months ago and it was comforting that the church developed a method to deliver the host separately, by the time he was ready to receive it. There are several people in our church who have confronted Father Bob with their gluten free issues. So I hope that, for our area at least, our church will be location that Catholics who wish to participate in Holy communion can go to receive it.


So, basically, if you are located in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and long to participate in Communion, then Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Rowlett, TX is an option for you. Just be sure to get to mass early so that you can let Father Bob know you will be needing Gluten Free Host and then make sure you receive the host from him, since he will be the only one carrying gluten free.

I hope this is helpful to all out there, and who knows, maybe it will help inspire others to look into implementing these methods into there church. God Bless All!
