In this homily given on Corpus Christi (Sunday, June 2, 2024), Fr Mathias outlines what it means to receive Jesus worthily and reverently. Intentionally not going into too much detail, Father offers an overview of the Church's teaching that Holy Communion is only for professed Catholics who are in a state of grace. He also reviews what it means to receive Holy Communion with great reverence, both in the heart and how we express that reverence in the postures at Mass.

I have watched the eucharist fall to the floor on multiple occasions in these past months at a NY cathedral....in fact...this AM at this same cathedral..the host fell to the floor and the priest picked it up and put it in his mouth. Also 1 person (not in a state to receive...)...presented to receive a blessing and received the blessing from the EUCHARISTIC MINISTER.

The following is such a huge issue, especially in the online space. I'm sharing this on Twitter with a friend, so I figured I'd share this here too if someone else needs it.
