    At my chapel we have a Low Mass so after Mass we always pray the Leonine prayers. But I don't feel comfortable praying them so I remain silent. Why? Because usually I have just received Holy Communion and I don't want to open my mouth or speak for fear that I may spit particles of Jesus out of my mouth and onto the floor. So If I do not receive Communion I say the prayers with everybody else but if I do receive I remain silent. Does anyone else have this problem?


    When I go to the TLM they say the Leonine prayers after the low mass. I think that if you feel uncomfortable in saying the prayers vocally that is ok. You should pray them mentally and God would be pleased.  


    Poche is right!

    If the OP has some unusual condition that causes something easily dissolved to still remain in his mouth after several minutes, than the next best thing is to keep his mouth shut and say the prayers internally.  A form of mental prayer.

    • I have been thinking about this a lot and I am still undecided as to what I should do in the future. I believe I have a good reason for not speaking after Holy Communion even to pray, the desire not to cause particles of Our Lord to fall on the floor. But I am also considering the idea that it could be wrong for me not to do what everyone else is doing even though I believe I have a good reason. I mean the Church is aware that it is possible for particles of the Host to fall on the floor if people speak after receiving, yet she still allows for speaking soon after communion so who am I to think otherwise. So it may be that even though I believe I have a good reason to not speak it still may be better for me to just do what everyone else is doing and speak.

    • I think it is best for you to simply never talk again and take a vow of permanent silence, that way there is simply no chance of spitting out the particles of the host.

    This has to be the most ridiculous post I have ever seen anywhere, you are definitely being sinfully scrupulous as it was pointed out.  We are Catholics not pharisees...

    How old are you, certainly not older than 16 or else you logic and reasoning could not be so addled.
