WHY WE DON'T PRACTICE
FIRST COMMUNION

In the Episcopal Church children are welcome to receive communion as early as the parents will let them.  

​

Our church doctrine still states that people must be baptized in order to receive the sacrament of Holy Communion.  And thus, upon baptism, no matter the age, everyone is welcome to receive.  The grace given at Baptism provides all that's “required” to be prepared to receive the grace of Holy Communion.  

​

We instruct our children on the meaning of the sacrament throughout their growing up. And adults are always growing in their understanding throughout their years.
