Low-gluten communion hosts are available at all weekend liturgies. The hosts made by the Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in Clyde, MO, contain 0.01% wheat gluten, are accepted by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and are recommended by the journal Gluten-Free Living as “perfectly safe” for sufferers of Celiac Sprue disease (Vol. 9, no. 1). The Archdiocese of Dubuque has approved these low-gluten altar breads for use in the Archdiocese. St. Pius X has a procedure to provide as much protection as possible for those with Celiac disease.
