For the first time, the Diocese of Virginia will host two fellowship days for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders to come together for a fun-filled day of formation and fellowship centered on the theme of Communion! The day will conclude with a kid-centered Eucharist.
“Children’s spirituality is woven into their laughter, movement, questioning, and wonder. Their faith is embodied, imaginative, and real. When we let them lead us, they remind us what Communion truly means. These fellowship days are about recognizing that children don’t just belong in the Church—they reveal it to us. To all our young 3rd- to 5th-grade leaders: we can’t wait to learn, play, and worship with you. Come show us what Communion looks like through your eyes.”
– Lauren Breeden
