Communion Discernment Class

February 12th at 9:30 am and noon

Since children mature at different rates, our congregation has made the shift in the practice of first communion. Rather than having an official age of first communion, we invite children to receive communion when parents and pastors determine readiness.

Many parents, grandparents, or godparents are not quite sure what they should be looking for to determine if their child is ready to receive communion. This class is for all of these adults as we discuss together what are the marks of readiness that we look for in a child. Since some interested adults may be helping with Sunday School, we will offer this course at two times on Sunday, February 12, at 9:30 am and noon.
