I remember going to my Baptist grandparents' VBS and having Wonder Bread and Grape Kool-aid. My little Anglican-self was amazed!
- - - I prefer Christian Brothers Port for communion wine.

funny communion story...i was at church a few years ago with my daughter and a girlfriend with her young son. when the bread passed her son whispered "can i have a cracker?" we said no, it wasnt a cracker. then, the grape juice. "can i have some juice?" and we said no. then we passed the collection plate, and after he dropped his dollar in the tray, he says (loudly) "hey! i didnt get a snack, and i paid for it, too!"
i couldnt breathe for ten minutes we laughed so hard! and he looked genuinely pissed that he didnt get his "snack"!!

I grew up with the grape juice & sugar cookies, not knowing that the sugar cookie bit was a holdover from old Scottish churches.
Anyhow, when my mother was young & worked after school, there was one Catholic girl, and one Presbyterian. Somehow, they got to talking about communion, and the Catholic girl told about going up to the Communion Rail for the bread & wine. My mother said that they passed around grape juice & sugar cookies, and the Presbyterian said that they got a shot & a sandwich. Somehow, this poor Catholic girl was believing this all, so the two non-Catholics got a little out of control. I don't remember the whole bit, but my Baptist mother mentioned that they meet in a swimming pool, but during the sermon, they're not allowed to play with the beach balls.
The first time I took Communion in an Episcopal Church, I couldn't believe how strong the wine was! A good friend of mine was the Rector, and afterwards I asked him, "Don, what type of wine do you all use? I am still buzzed!" He said, "Mogen David," to which I responded, "Which one, Mad Dog 20-20?"

We have a grape juice option...I personally don't think using grape juice is kosher (for lack of a better word), but I don't mind it if other people choose that option. The church I grew up in taught that grape juice didn't count - it was Mogan David or nothing.
