Has there been any discussion in the Catholic Church about whether hand sanitizer profanes the Host?
Upvote:1
Using hand sanitizer after the Lavabo is to introduce a new rite into the Mass. The Lavabo rite is described in the Ritus servandus in celebratione Missæ (Rubrics of the Missale Romanum) as, for the 1962 Missal:
- With his hands joined before his breast, he goes to the Epistle side, and standing there, washes his hands as the minister pours the water [not hand sanitizer], i.e. the ends of his fingers with his thumbs and index fingers, saying meanwhile the psalm: Lavabo inter innocentes manus meas… etc. [Ps. 25:6ff.]
Or for the Novus Ordo (General Instruction of the Roman Missal 2003):
- After the prayer In spiritu humilitatis (Lord God, we ask you to receive us) or after the incensation, the priest washes his hands standing at the side of the altar and, as the minister pours the water, says quietly, Lava me, Domine (Lord, wash away my iniquity).
The introduction of new rites or changing them (e.g., substituting hand sanitizer for the water at the Lavabo) is forbidden by the Council of Trent session 7, canon 13:
Canon XIII.—If any one saith, that the received and approved rites of the Catholic Church, wont to be used in the solemn administration of the sacraments, may be contemned, or without sin be omitted at pleasure by the ministers, or be changed, by every pastor of the churches, into other new ones: let him be anathema.
Canon XIII.—Si quis dixerit, receptos et approbates Ecclesiæ Catholicæ ritus, in solemni sacramentorum administratione adhiberi consuetos, aut contemni, aut sine peccato a ministris pro libito omitti, aut in novos alios per quemcumque ecclesiarum pastorem mutari posse: anathema sit.
