  1. If the Archdruid is still missing port, there is an argument for attending Holy Communion for the wine, which is both consecrated and in good churches, actually port is used.

    Assisting in wine administration, also provides the opportunity to consume that which has not been consumed by the communicants.

    Just a thought - it means a conversion, but not necessary for the CofE, who would welcome you with outstretched wine chalice.

  2. I think you'll find, UKViewer, that one cannot just turn up and become wine administrator. There are lessons and - for all I know - probably competency examinations.
    Also, I know that some Anglican priests ensure they consume any left-overs themselves. Conversion may be a thought, but waiting for the end of Lent may be quicker.
