An Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament of your Body and Blood.
I love You and desire to receive You.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come spiritually
into my heart.
I embrace You and unite myself
wholly to You. Never let me be separated from You.
Amen
