Administering the Sacrament

May priesthood holders administer the sacrament in the homes of other ward members who do not have a worthy priest or Melchizedek Priesthood holder in the home?

Generally, yes. Currently, government directives or local regulations restrict this practice in many nations and cities. Until further notice, in these places, priesthood holders should not enter homes of Church members to whom they are not related to administer the sacrament. During this time, members can be blessed by studying the sacrament prayers and recommitting to live the covenants members have made and praying for the day they will receive it in person, properly administered by the priesthood.

If there are any special circumstances regarding the administration of the Sacrament, please call the Bishop to discuss.

It is our testimony that there is peace in Jesus Christ. He is the master physician. He is the light and life of this world. He is our Redeemer.

We love you!

The Parleys 3rd Ward Bishopric
