Pentecostal Wine

Someone told me this morning about a village east of Cape Town, which was refusing access to the Pentecostal Church. Here is their problem. The local Church serves communion wine in little “tot” glasses, but the Pentecostals serve it in a chalice – placing no limit on the amount that congregants drink -- it would be improper to dictate that. Further, the Pentecostals believe that all the communion wine must be finished before the Church disperses. OBSERVATION: I have this through the Pentecostals, so perhaps it is true. In South Africa, one can buy “Communion Wine” in liquor stores (so labelled, in Afrikaans), which is an excellent dessert wine.
