I must have been too busy wondering where the little glasses were

LOL

See, cause we're Cat'lick they'd have to be at least gold plate, and they couldn't be throw-away so the priest would have to wash each one. It just wouldn't work. So in our church, the shot-glasses are all in the rectory bar where they belong.

The ones we use are glass, so they get washed, not thrown away.

Y'all use thimble sized shot-glasses? ;o)

When I was a kid (too young to take communion) our church tried a "modern" service. Rather than using the usual hosts & glasses, they passed around a loaf of bread & a big goblet. My mom & a neighbor came back to their place in the pew giggling. First, they'd torn off pieces of bread that were a bit too large. Then, one of them looked at the amount of wine left in the bottom of the goblet & thought is was almost gone, so figured she'd finish it off. The stem of the goblet was hollow, so that last little bit turned out to be more like a big guzzle.
