Act of Spiritual Communion

St. Alphonsus’ Act of Spiritual Communion might be comforting during these days when we are separated from one another, but connected as the body of Christ:

 

My Jesus, 
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. 
I love You above all things, 
and I desire to receive You into my soul. 
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally, 
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.

Amen.

— St. Alphonsus Liguori
