Whether it be a Holy Communion, Baptism, Dedication or Confirmation, a religious service signifying the faith and obedience of an individual is one of the most sacred and important events of their lifetime. Friends and family members are usually honored to be invited to attend and participate in the joyous occasion, and choosing a special communion invitation can make the event even more meaningful. When choosing an invitation, be sure to consider the meaning of any religious symbols included in the card design. By selecting a favorite color, choosing an appropriate design and personalizing the printed message, an invitation can reflect the personality of the sender, as well as portraying the significance of the ceremony. Choosing a custom printed holy communion invitation also allows the option of including a favorite passage of scripture.

The Legend of the DogwoodIn Jesus' time, the dogwood grewTo a stately size and a lovely hue. 'Twas strong and firm, its branches interwoven For the cross of Christ its timbers were chosen. Seeing the distress at this use of their wood Christ made a promise which still holds good: 'Never again shall the dogwood grow Large enough to be used so. Slender and twisted, it shall be With blossoms like the cross for all to see. As blood stains the petals marked in brown The blossom's center wears a thorny crown. All who see it will remember me Crucified on a cross from the dogwood tree. Cherished and protected this tree shall be A reminder to all of my agony. ~Author Unknown~
