Gathering Around the Table: Children and Communion

This study guide is not the first attempt at a fresh understanding of the place of children in the church and their place at Communion. It has drawn upon a wealth of material provided by theologians, ministers, students and those involved in the education and nurture of children and young people.

It seeks to explore how children might be welcomed to this central celebration of our faith with integrity, taking seriously the nature of the meal.

We hope this will give each church freedom to look at the whole subject in a way that is appropriate to their own context.
