Flu Pandemic:


As we know numbers of people contacting swine flu in the Uk are slowly increasing, but are nowhere near epidemic proportions here in Lancashire (5 confirmed cases so far). We have been asked to think ahead about the distribution of Holy Communion with the chalice. It may be in a few months time, if things change radically, that we decide to resort to Holy Communion under one kind, while the pandemic is on. Although there’s nothing to worry about at present, we will be cleaning the chalices in boiling water after each Mass for the foreseeable future.
