First Communion Milestone - November 2007


Ezra Buckman, Kara Hershey and Morgan Comini with Pastor ElkinReceiving Holy Communion for the first time is a milestone in a young person’s life. On Sunday, November 18, 2007, Ezra Buckman, Kara Hershey and Morgan Comini received First Communion at the 10:30 service.

Ezra Buckman, Kara Hershey and Morgan Comini with Pastor ElkinHoly Communion is central to our Lutheran Faith. At the discretion of their parents, third graders at St. Mark's are invited to prepare for First Communion. The students and their parents participate in several classes focusing on a Biblically-based introduction to our Lutheran understanding of the Lord's Supper.

Ezra, Kara and Morgan successfully completed their instruction and will now sit at the Lord's table, fully prepared to receive God's meal.
