Coming to Communion
Sometimes people are put off coming to a communion service because they are not confirmed; however all are welcome to come forward for a blessing, even if they are not confirmed – usually people let the minister know this by bringing their service sheet or book with them in their hands so that the priest knows they would like a blessing.
A blessing is when God is asked to come and be present on and in a person through the action of his Spirit. Children are also welcome to come and receive a blessing.
We welcome all those who are accepted in full membership
of their own churches to receive Holy Communion
Home Communion
If you are unable to get out and would like Home Communion, it may be possible for your local Churchwarden to arrange it. Please contact the appropriate Churchwarden.
