Q.  How is communion served?

A.  Holy Communion is celebrated each Sunday.  You will be directed by the ushers to come forward

     and kneel or stand at the altar rail.  You will receive bread first, followed by wine or

     grape juice in individual glasses.  If you do not wish to commune, you may receive a blessing at the

     rail or remain seated.  After receiving communion, you are welcome to remain at the

     rail for prayer as you wish before returning to your seat.
