Hi Guy's+:

Came across this interesting link.

http://www.paedocommunion.com/churches/

To the REC's out there, I would like to ask if this is a mistaken reference to the REC or do you believe in paedocommunion?  To the APA guys what is your view on paedocommunion? 

To get the discussion going, I will say I do not believe it is right due to St. Paul's comments 1Cor:11:29: For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.  a person has to be old enough to "discern" and I agree with the traditional view of having them wait for confirmation. I understand RC first communion, Greek orthodox practice and of course ECUSA.

Interested in your comments,

Bill+
