Rector's Forum
Communion & Baptism

After Coffee Hour in the Library

This summer a resolution was put forward at the General Convention proposing to end the church's baptism requirement for receiving Communion. The resolution did not pass but it compelled many folks in the Episcopal Church to wonder... Is it unwelcoming to restrict people from receiving communion? How are baptism and Communion related? What is baptism and what is Communion? Join The Rev. Jesse Lebus for an exploration of these questions and the resolution that inspired them.
