This sign of peace is a load of rubbish.We are in Gods house praying to Him,so what is the need? After the sign,we then proceed to Communion to hold the Body of Christ in the hand that has been gripped by 5 or 6 people,ingesting countless unneccessary germs along with the Host.I refuse to take part on the grounds that it is a break in concentration prior to the most important part of my week

What 5 or 6 people?

5 or 6 or more with whom you shake hands at the sign of peace? More like 8 or 9 on Sunday morning (my pew mates and all the folks in the pew ahead and behind).

I misread that as the Body of Christ has been held by 5-6 people.

👍👍

I really don’t care for the sign of peace / i.e. shaking people’s hands. I grew up on this sign of peace stuff. It’s very feel-good oriented. Kind of superfluous. I wouldn’t cry if it was eliminated from the mass.

If you love God with all your heart, mind, soul & strength, you are going to love Neighbor.
