[QUOTE="JohnnieWalker, post: 296034, member: 853"] Falcon correctly quotes the policy of the Cathedral which is published on the Pilgrims' Office website. The guidance given to staff is to enquire if the child has reached the age for "first communion" - the age the church takes as when a child has an understanding of spiritual concepts. For this reason Compostelas are refused to children even when all others in the family receive one. That is one of the reasons why the new style certificate was introduced which IMHO is indistinguishable from the Compostela. Before shooting the messenger may I say I personally disagree with this divisive policy and I think that far too much is made of the "rules " for obtaining a Compostela. [/QUOTE]
