1. Not Bowing Before Receiving the Holy Eucharist
Paying reverence before the receiving the Holy Eucharist is a very important aspect of the Holy Communion. Because we are face-face with Christ at that moment, coming to receive his flesh and blood. So showing respect by bowing, kneeling or making the sign of the Cross are most appropriate and reverencing acts before receiving Him. This can be confirmed in the USCCB’s General Instruction of the Roman Missal.
Bow yes. Amen yes. Thank Jesus for all the blessings bestowed on me. Thank Jesus for His life, death, rising from the dead and ascending into Heaven so that by receiving His Body and Blood in Holy Communion and doing God’s will not mine. I would like to go to Heaven and be there always with Jesus. Amen
