About Intro to Communion Milestone
Children in kindergarten and a parent are invited to have an introduction to the worship spaces and explore a few elements of Worship.
Why this Milestone?
The Communion Milestone incorporates a simple structure that includes:
- Naming – It is important to recognize this as a time to learn about the mystery of Holy Communion together as a family, whether it is for a first communion or at a more age-appropriate time.
- Equipping – This milestone provides the opportunity for all ages to gather and have caring conversations about what Holy Communion means to them and gain a better understanding of this sacrament.
- Blessing – The blessing for those participating in this milestone provides a reinforcement and special time to recognize God’s grace and forgiveness.
- Gifting – You may give a visible item as a physical reminder of this occasion, such as a candle or pottery.
- Reinforcing – Follow up after the Communion Milestone by connecting this group one more time to share stories about what they learned and remember about Holy Communion. Encourage the group to experience a Seder Supper to help them learn even more.
