Well, it's called the Eucharist, it's supposed to be the body of christ and you wash that down with the blood of christ, the wine, during what is called Communion. I can't remember all the symbolic bullshit nor do I care. Personally, I stopped taking communion once I decided that I wasn't a cannibal. Nothing sounds fucking weirder than saying, 'Here eat this, it's the body of christ. Ya know, the dead Jew hanging on the wall over there.' That, like the rest of the church is a strange brand I stopped being part of a long time ago, but I digress.
Communion is serious business, especially if you attend St. Sylvester’s Catholic Church in Gulf Breeze, FL. A woman by the name of Jackie Trebesh and her daughter were asked to leave during Communion by the priest himself. When her and her daughter approached the altar they were told by the priest to leave the property. Mrs. Trebesh and her daughter were so taken back by the demand that they left the church and as they pulled away were stopped by the police. When she asked the officer why she was stopped the cop told her that he was acting on orders from Rev. John Kelly and each were issued trespass warnings.
Trebesh was later told that the reason she was ousted during services was because other church members had seen her daughter spit the communion wafer out in the parking lot after a previous service.
“The matter of disposing of the Eucharist in an inappropriate way is a serious matter to us,” Peggy Dekeyser, the communications officer for the diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee said in confirming Trebesh’s theory.
Asked if the substance of the item Rachel Trebesh was seen disposing of had been verified, Dekeyser declined comment. Church officials also said they've forgiven the family and have asked them to come back. Jackie Trebesh said she hasn't been contacted by anyone. Christ on a cracker.
