Due to the spread of the dreadful disease Ebola, Catholic Churches have decided on a new method of Communion.
The Catholic Archbishop of Abuja, His Eminence, John Cardinal Onaiyekan, asked Reverend Fathers to adopt this new procedure which is giving the Holy Communion to avoid spread of the Ebola virus.
The Holy Communion will now be given on the palm as against placing it on the tongue of the recipient.
Many Catholic churches have already adopted the procedure, and carried it out yesterday during communion.
Worshipers have also been stopped from shaking hands during consecration of Holy Communion.
