During Communion, the story of Jesus Christ at the Passover dinner the night before his capture and hanging from the cross is read, and we take the bread, which represents his body, broken for us, and break it, then dip it in the wine (or Grape Juice), his blood shed for us, and then we eat the bread and pause for a moment of prayer.

The First Communion marks not only a child's beginning understanding of the Sacrament, but also a passage into a 'communion' of celebration with other believers. If I'm not mistaken, if a child has not made a First Communion along with religious instruction, they are excluded from the celebration until they complete this instruction.


Is there a priest at a Holy Communion service?

Roman Catholic AnswerThe only times that a Catholic Church would have a Communion service would be if a priest were not available. In my diocese the rules are that a parish may have a Communion service on one Sunday out of the year if it is impossible to get a priest. The Vatican forbids Communion services during the week, and on a regular basis. There had to have been a priest there before the Communion service to consecrate the Sacred Hosts.
