Contending for the Faith in Moscow, Idaho

Image for infant-communion-in-utero

“…an infant…participated in the sacrament in utero for nine months, and continues to participate at that same level until he is weaned. So in our congregation, the time between such organic participation and individual participation is very short, and corresponds to a similar transition on the physical level between milk and solids. So I don’t see such a child being excluded from anything.”1 —Doug Wilson
