Dear all Following our debate last year on the impossibility of finding Fairtrade Communion wine, I thought that many of you would be interested in today's...
I agree, Maureen. The questions all assumed quite a degree of committed knowledge and didn't work too well if you were giving them to people new to the...
Hi We've been using fairtrade wine at church for a number of years. We didn't see why the wine at communion had to be that rather sweet thick stuff that's more...
I was in Brussels too and heard the presentation about this case. I forwarded the details to our 'friendly' Councillor when I got back and he has already sent...

To be honest, the answer is almost certainly yes. However, practically this would be a bit of a nightmare to organise. I would suggest that you wait to see how...
