Communion

Communion


Once a month we celebrate communion, on the first Sunday of the month, when all different groups are all together.


After reading a word from the Bible, often 1 Corinthians, chapter 11, verses 23 - 26, and perhaps sharing some thoughts, the wine, grape juice, and bread are blessed.


Then we can go forward and receive the Lord's Supper. 


Everyone is welcome to partake of the Eucharist.


The Lord's Supper is seen as a moment of remembrance, devotion, reflection and contemplation about what Jesus did for man through his death and resurrection. It is also a moment for a concrete reception of Jesus into one's own life, a kind of reliving of baptism when the believer was united with Christ.




1 Corinthians 11:23-26


23This, you see, is what I received from the Lord, and handed on to you. On the night when the Lord Jesus was betrayed, he took bread,24gave thanks, broke it, and said, “This is my body; it’s for you! Do this in remembrance of me.”25He did the same with the cup after supper, and said, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Whenever you drink it, do this in remembrance of me.”26For whenever you eat this bread and drink the cup, you are announcing the Lord’s death until he comes.
