Many Laypeople Give Communion in Madrid:
More than one million faithful attended Pope Leo XIV's Corpus Christi Mass in Madrid on 7 June.
In order to distribute Holy Communion [in the hand], the organisers deployed around 2,200 ministers, many of whom were religious sisters or laypeople.
Meanwhile, hundreds of priests waited in line to receive Communion themselves rather than distribute it.
