Holy Communion: Remembering Christ’s Sacrifice and Receiving Spiritual Sustenance
"Breaking Bread Together"
Join us at the Table to remember His sacrifice and receive grace for the journey.
A sacred moment of remembrance, unity, and renewal in the presence of Christ.
Holy Communion, known variously as The Lord’s Supper or the Eucharist, is the central act of Christian worship and a sacred appointment with our Savior. We invite all baptized believers who long for a deeper connection with Christ to join us at His Table. This is not merely a symbolic ritual; it is a profound declaration of our faith and a powerful source of spiritual sustenance. We come to this table because we are commanded by Jesus to remember Him through the visible signs of bread and wine.
The Threefold Meaning
The meaning of Communion is built upon three essential actions. It is an act of Remembrance, where we look back to the cross. The bread represents Christ’s body broken for us, and the cup represents His blood shed for the forgiveness of sins, just as the Apostle Paul wrote: "For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes." It is a statement of Unity as we look around at our fellow believers. By sharing one loaf and one cup, we affirm that we are one body in Him, uniting our family of faith. Finally, it is an expression of Anticipation as we look forward to Christ’s return, celebrating this meal in the joyful hope of the great feast we will share with Him in heaven.
"The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread."
— 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 (ESV)
