Mom Communion
Wednesday night, Bev Halperin and I finished our class for children and their moms. We ended with communion. The children made stoles and chalices and then they served their mothers communion. It was a touching moment for me to witness these wonderful children serving their equally wonderful mothers the sacrament of Holy Communion. Bone of their bone, flesh of their flesh. It was a tender and beautiful moment in time.

I have to say as one of the moms, it was a very wonderful experience for me as well. I really enjoyed that Pam pointed out to the kids that the pastors' stoles that they wear set them aside - not above or below others but aside - aside for a special purpose. My kids loved making their own stole and getting to be "important" by helping serve communion.
