ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION PRAYER

Offered as an example of a suitable prayer for use by home viewers wishing to participate

in a Live Streaming of the Mass

After the celebrant has received Holy Communion himself, and in place of communicating the faithful, the celebrant reads aloud the Act of Spiritual Communion, and invites the home viewers to say the words of the prayer with him.

My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least into my heart.

I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.

Never permit me to be separated from You.

Amen
