First Communion at Saint Paul's

One of the children from the Saint Paul's Sunday School made her First Communion on Pentecost Sunday. In 2006, the General Synod of the Church of England voted to welcome children, who have not yet been confirmed, to be admitted to Holy Communion. This decision reflects common practice many Christian communities where all of God's children are welcomed to share in the Lord's Supper. In the Diocese in Europe, children from the age of 7 can so be admitted, provided that they undergo suitable preparation to ensure they have some sense of the dignity of the Sacrament. Children at Saint Paul's, Monaco have been welcomed to Holy Communion since November 2008 and, to date,
23 children have been admitted to Holy Communion in our church. If you know a child, seven years or older, who would appreciate admission to Holy Communion at Saint Paul's Church, please contact Father Walter.

TELELOOP SYSTEM NOW AT SAINT PAUL'S

In the course of the winter (2013), a new teleloop system was installed in Saint Paul's Church, thanks largely to the efforts of Liesbeth and Clive Tinker with the help of Jeremy Swales. A teleloop system allows sound to be transmitted directly from a microphone to a hearing aid (with a telecoil). This makes it easier for hearing aid users to enjoy religious services -- and listen to sermons! -- without the distraction of background noise. People with hearing aids having difficulty connecting with the new teleloop system during services at Saint Paul's are asked to contact Mr William Brion at Monaco Surdité (93.50.56.56) for assistance in calibrating their hearing aid with the system.
