“Brethern, If a man be overtaken in a fault; ye that are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself; lest thou also be tempted.” (Galatians 6:1)
“For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which He was betrayed took bread: and when He had given thanks, He brake it, and said, Take eat: this is My body, which was broken for you: This do in rememberance of Me. After the same manner also He took the cup, when He had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in My blood: this doye, as often as ye drink it, in rememberance of Me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the lord’s death till He come. Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, un- worthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.”
1 Corinthians 11:23-30)

I attended a funeral Mass once where alot of non-Catholics were present. The priest (I don’t recall his exact words but you get the point) very graciously made an announcement prior to communion that all of our non-Catholics brothers & those who were unprepared to receive the Lord in the Eucharist were welcome to join our communion procession but would receive a special blessing instead of the Eucharist. He asked them to designate themselves by crossing their arms across their chest as they approached the altar so that he would know not to distribute the Sacrament to them but instead placed his hands on them & uttered a very touching blessing.
It ended up being a wonderful way to welcome non-Catholics into our church & many of them seemed very delighted at this. A few were even moved to tears.
Have you ever attended a Mass where you worshipped God, instead of spending the time judging the other congregants?
