VI. The Paschal Banquet

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

1390
Since Christ is sacramentally present under each of the species, communion
under the species of bread alone makes it possible to receive all the fruit of
Eucharistic grace. For pastoral reasons this manner of receiving communion has
been legitimately established as the most common form in the Latin rite. But
“the sign of communion is more complete when given under both kinds, since
in that form the sign of the Eucharistic meal appears more
clearly.”²²² This is the usual form of receiving communion in the
Eastern rites.
