communion wine

[Vergergc]

Friends,

Are there any churches using Golden Angelica instead of a red wine? I'm aware Grace in San Fran has used it for decades. Just wondered if any do in our little verger group.

Faithfully,

Hi Kent,

 

Golden Angelica is not used her at St. John's Boulder, CO.  We actually use a port and not the expensive stuff.

Hello Kent,

Except for a short time where Christ Church Cathedral Indianapolis used a local winery's white wine (the plasma of Christ), they were using Fairbanks finest Tawny Port.  As far as I know, my current parish, St Margaret's Waxhaw, NC uses the same "fine" Tawny Port.  We used to say it was the finest Port you could buy $5 a bottle.

At the small church of St. Matthews in Ohio, we have always used Taylor Tawny Port.  Sadly, about a month ago we started running short.  I ended up buying 2 large bottles of Taylor's Port.  It is pretty much the same stuff but not as sweet.  Last Sunday was our first Sunday using it and I was bracing for some to notice and complain.  But, no one said a word.  Guess I dodged that bullet.

We  have used Angelica for  decades here at All Saints Pasadena. It sure cuts down on the red wine stains.

At Grace, the Trinity Campus uses cream sherry and the St. Paul's Campus uses a port wine.

For many, many years we have used a white wine instead of red (not sure what it is?). Altar Guild got tired of trying to remove the red wine from the linens! 

Cathedral in Orlando, St. Luke's, used to. I don't know if they still do?

Thanks very much for the replies. We are still investigating our options.
