First Communion
There is not a fixed age at GA when children can receive communion. This is a decision best left to parents; pastors will join in the discussion if you so desire.
A yearly “First Communion” retreat is held during Lent (before Easter) in the spring. Children who have been baptized and parents who would like to grow in their understanding of Holy Communion are invited to participate. Activities at this morning retreat include baking communion bread and learning about the meaning of the sacrament of Holy Communion
Children participating in this workshop with their parents will receive their First Communion at the Maundy Thursday service of Holy Week.
