Archbishop Bruno Forte of Chieti-Vasto, Italy, maintains an order that
forces the faithful not to receive Holy Communion, but to grasp it with
their fingers.
Forte's secretary said in a 12 April memo that the
holy water could be reintroduced in churches: "With regard to the
distribution of Communion in our archdiocese, the faithful continue to
receive the Eucharist in the hand." Forte has no authority to order
this.
The ban on Holy Water and reception of Holy Communion began
with the Covid hysteria. Interestingly, with the beginning of the
Ukrainian war in February 2022, the hysteria disappeared from one day to
the other from the propaganda screen of the oligarchs.
Accordingly,
the Italian bishops, who naturally had completely bought into the Covid
fraud, "allowed" the reception of Communion in April 2022 and
officially overcame their Covid panic in May 2023.
Forte, who insists on "obedience"
when it comes to defending Francis, disobeyed this decision. He
announced in June 2022 and April 2023 that all the faithful must grasp
Holy Communion with their fingers as if the Body of Christ were a potato chip.
In
2016, Forte revealed that Francis had told him that he wouldn't talk
explicitly about Communion for adulterers to avoid a fuss, but would set
the premises for it and draw the conclusions later.
In April
2020, Mgr. Forte walked alone in a Good Friday procession in honour of
the coronavirus, but unfortunately during the event Christ fell from the cross.
