I've been back and asked why the Roma woman is not allowed to share in the administration of Communion with me in the old people's home. "She was seen begging in town." "She has not been CRBd". "You can take communion on your own and don't need a helper." "She strokes people's hands."
My responses:
"She had to sell flowers in town to feed her 5 children. This is an offence. So would allowing her children to starve be an offence."
"She can easily be CRBd."
"In our church we try to do all our ministry in two's and whenever possible and man with a woman."
"We can easily ask her not to stroke hands."
I pray for wisdom and insight...
