The priest devoured them at the funeral mass in front of the faithful. “Maybe he was hungry”

Father Piotr Jarosiewicz, known from TikTok, often explains to interested parties various aspects related to the customs of the Church or simply answers various questions of the faithful who turn to him with all sorts of dilemmas. This time, the network immediately circulated a recording in which he explained the behavior of another clergyman.

One user of the popular Chinese platform asked Father Jarosiewicz the following question: “Once, during a funeral mass, a lot of wafers were left in the chalice and the priest ate everything. I think 20. Did he do the right thing?”

The response of the tiktoker priest clearly surprised some. Well, the clergyman announced that the priest mentioned in the question behaved correctly. In the published video, however, he decided to explain this issue in detail.

“The priest’s job is to eat what’s left”

At the beginning, he pointed out that the phrase “a lot of wafer left” should not be used in this context. Why? According to a priest from TikTok, according to the Catholic faith, it should be said “the body of Christ”.

– I dare to correct that ‘there was a lot of Lord Jesus left in the chalice (…),’ he said, referring to the residue he also used the term ‘communicants’.

When we do not have a tabernacle, i.e. a place where we can keep the Blessed Sacrament, we are to do something with this Blessed Sacrament. The priest … is to eat what is left

the priest revealed.

The priest ate everything so that there would be nothing left, and then purified it. So, absolutely

– he added.

Many people commented on the video. “Maybe he was hungry,” one of the Internet users jokingly wrote, referring to the behavior of the described priest.

On pilgrimages it is often the case that several priests have to consume the hosts because they are left over

Once I was serving, I was sitting after communion, the priest came up to me and gave me about 10 at a time

– we read in some comments.

Some do not believe in the translation of Fr. Jarosiewicz.

Consume the Lord Jesus, in what times we live

Did I understand correctly? there was a lot of Jesus left in the cup and there was no place to put it, so it had to be eaten?
