Are there any exceptions to the Eucharistic Fast?

[yelsel]

We belong to a large parish with many funerals and not many altar servers willing to do them. Our son often serves back to back funerals in the late morning/early afternoon on days he isn’t in school. Can he have a snack between these funerals?

The following link should fully explain the Church rules on the pre-Communion fast. Keep in mind, however, that your son does not have to receive Communion at any or all of the funerals. If you have any further questions, please contact Catholic Answers directly.
