What to Expect

Children accompanied by at least one parent or guardian are invited to attend a communion learning experience. This one-night class (about 60 minutes) is a shared parent/child experience to support a meaningful communion practice. The class includes videos, discussion time, tasting of the bread and wine, prayer, and answering children’s questions. Families are then invited to worship at a church service following the class to participate in the celebration of communion together.

*Communion Celebration will be on Maundy Thursday, April 17 at 7:00 pm.

If a child is curious about and asking to take communion, we invite you listen to that cue, and consider enrolling in the communion class. Staff can answer questions about your child’s readiness for Holy Communion.

Shepherd of the Valley is committed to welcoming people of all abilities and working to understand and meet the needs of our congregation. If your child needs an accommodation, modification, or assistance to fully participate in this event, please indicate this in the “Health Concern Explanation” field of your registration, and your program leader will follow up if there are questions. We may not be able to meet all requests at this time.

We intend to take photos and/or video during programming and other events, which may appear in worship, social media, website, or congregational communication without names listed. If you have a concern about this, please email Kelsey Young.
