hello, i hope this does not seem like a silly question in light of the seriousness of alot of the other postings, but it is a question in my mind:

i bring the eucharist to a young man who is homebound. i usually visit in the mornings but now he is asking that i come in the afternoon since he is alone now at that time. i spend the afternoons a the swim club/pool w/ my kids. would it be inappropriate to pick up the eucharist from our parish office and bring to my friend while i am still dressed in my bathing suit (cover up of course) and a baseball cap? this is how i dress to go to the pool. would this be disrespectful to jesus in the eucharist or am i making something out of nothing? thank you!

Hi,

Good for you for being sensitive about this. Yes, it would be inappropriate to bring the Eucharist is such informal attire. Bring it to him in the morning.
