Faith and Order - Communion

Deprivation is a term used in the Methodist Church when there is not reasonably frequent and regular celebration of the sacrament of the Lord's Supper.
To assist local churches in this, it directed the Faith and Order Committee, as a matter of urgency, to produce guidance on acts of Holy Communion in our current context.
