Bread Usage in the Gallo-Russo-Byzantine and Anglican-Byzantine Rites In
the Gallo-Russo-Byzantine and Anglican-Byzantine Rites, following the
Council of Florence in the 15th century, both leavened and unleavened
bread may be used for Holy Communion. Regular unnleavened communion
hosts are permissible, as are both loaves of bread of both leavened and
unleavened types. However, the Reserved Sacrament, as a practical
matter, is maintained only in the form of unleavened hosts.
