Community Discussion

One barrier to treating others as we should when we are following Jesus, in particular if they are with us on a Sunday, is our long standing and deeply held belief that partaking of the bread and wine should be restricted to baptized members, a belief we share with many other churches. It would make me, at least, feel as a second class person.
