Actually I have seen water put in with the wine. The priest will have a clear Crystal pitcher of water. Just to be true of what I have seen. I know it is deluted wine at times. I hope this helps. This might be for kids who go up.

Putting water into the wine is not what was said. It was that water was changed into wine.

That’s a pretty basic error in Catholic teaching.

My priest didn’t say a word about it either.

You quite obviously don’t understand the ministerial Priesthood of the ordained.


Anyone can ask God, through his Son, for a Blessing, and through Faith, receive it.

This is far better than receiving a “blessing” from a priest who obviously does not understand his own ordination.

But, I’m not trying to argue. I’m saying Gods Blessings are available to all believers.

Putting water in the wine is symbolic:

John 19:34
Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water.

The phrase was *turning water into wine*.

Oh, sorry. I thought you were speaking of the Communion Chalice.
