I don’t know either, I think some receive on the hand and drink directly from the chalice BUT I won’t comment further because I’m getting off topic.

Blessings
no worries, it’s interesting to be sure

Forgive my ignorance, what jurisdiction do you serve? Greek? Russian? Serbian? OCA?

I know your a convert, so I have no idea what your ancestry is.

Aren’t all Eastern Orthodox Churches equal?
Yes, I was just making a little joke because I'm fond of wine. :) There are small differences in practices sometimes.

I know when I was younger there were small cups of wine after receiving. Does the OCA still do this or was it only in Russian based churches within the OCA? I never really thought about that or even noticed it when in other churches like Greek or Antiochian.

Are there any Orthodox Eucharistic miracles? I know there are some in the Catholic Church.( I was just reading about an one yesterday. I believe the RCC does consider the Orthodox Eucharist to be valid but not the eucharist in my Lutheran Church.

yes, there are. one that happens every time is that disease isn’t transmitted through communion.

Not to go off topic, but I heard they used multiple spoons for the Eucharist during the pandemic?

Truth?

Thank you. Our church (WELS) used to use a common cup but we don't anymore.
I was curious if there were Eucharistic miracles in the EO on the level I've read about in the RCC.

we use a common cup. the use of multiple spoons didn’t last and caused a lot of issues in certain areas.
