Baking Nuns

The Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in Missouri bake and sell millions of Communion wafers, small and large. But some would-be communicants were concerned about being allergic to the gluten in the wheat in the nun’s wafers — the hosts, as they are known. So they could not receive Communion. For the sisters, that was a challenge that they were eager to meet.
