Nope.  It's no mistaken reference.  The REC gives local parishes latitude as
to what they do.

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+
