I wouldn’t want to be fussy about that [Communion in the hand].
It was done in the early Church.
A reverent manner of receiving Communion in the hand is in itself
a perfectly reasonable way to receive Communion.
Pope Benedict XVI - God and the World, p,410

"Those who reject the teaching of the Second Vatican Council are placing themselves outside the Church”. “Either you are with the Church and therefore you follow the council, or you interpret it in your own away – according to your desire – [and] you do not stand with the Church,” the Pope said.

A friend of mine, a Dominican friar, recently told me a story about his visit to a university that had just built a new library. Noticing that it was surrounded by nothing but grass, my friend asked a maintenance worker, “Where are all the sidewalks?” Those of us who work for the Church would do well to consider the answer he received: “Once we see where the students walk, then we will build them.” In other words, rather than placing the sidewalks according to their plan and expecting the students to conform, the people in charge of the project decided to follow their lead. Can we approach the work of evangelization in the same way, paying attention to where the people are already walking instead of offering them a predetermined path? [Matt Regner]

The Church: Graced, Missionary, and Synodal A Theology for the Plenary Council.... Rev Dr Richard Lennan
Let us rethink our usual way of doing things; let us open our eyes and ears, and above all our hearts, so as not to be complacent about things as they are, but unsettled by the living and effective word of the risen Lord. — Pope Francis, Gaudete et Exsultate, 137
