Question
At what AGE can a child recieve communion in the Baptist church?  Are any preparations required?

Answer
Sorry for the delay in answering your question. Had a hard time trying to sort the computers.

Yes, about your question, normally Holy Communion should be given to anyone who is mature enough to understand the importance and the significance of it. There are no specific preparation as such except that the Child is taught about the 'Wine' and the 'Bread'. The normal age group would be around 12 and above or could be less depending on the child.

Thanks. God bless
