Churches tackle gluten-free issues with communion hosts

Many churches are promoting and offering gluten-free communion hosts for parishioners who have celiac disease or are gluten-sensitive, although Catholic churches follow Vatican doctrine requiring hosts be made of wheat. There are low-gluten hosts that meet Catholic criteria, but because some celiac patients or other gluten-sensitive members still cannot eat them, parishes are being pushed to address the issue.  http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/ct-x-gluten-free-hosts-0111-20120118,0,4919671.story
