The main reason that churches use grape juice is because the Welch's Grape Juice company made a big push, a century ago, about it being non-alcoholic, etc. etc. That was a time when public drunkenness was a big concern, which ultimately led to Prohibition.I've never been in a church that didn't offer juice, and I've never had wine in my life. I never intend to, for any reason.
We who use wine, as the church did for many centuries previous, do so because that was what Christ used and also what he told us to do. But that aside, at Communion each person takes in such a small amount that it's not at all what you may be imagining.
