On the Church calendar we move from the birth of Christ to the ministry of Christ at lighting speed. Well, this week we will look at the new direction God took them as a Holy Family and it just might spur us into asking God what is the one thing He would like us to do in 2021 as a church and as followers of Christ. Join us as we come together to worship and celebrate Holy Communion as the Body of Christ.
We celebrate Communion together and remember the sacrifice given so that we might have life. The Christian walk isn’t just looking pretty on the outside. There’s proof to the walk in being united with Christ. Scripture says “Taste and see that the Lord is good.”
Today, we look at what it means to join in with God's Purpose and Plan. We begin to ask ourselves if we are ready and willing to share in God's plan? Jesus calls us all to GO. This week is the first of two parts of joining God's plan, join us next week as we discover what it means to GO and what it takes to GO.
We begin this week with an introduction to our next mini-sermon series which will be entitled LEAP. As a church and as personal followers of Jesus we are being asked to LEAP into what God has planned for us.
We gather together to celebrate communion and remember and proclaim that Jesus is the cure for our social ills of the world today. He is the Savior of the world and we are equipped to go out and tell of how He has changed our lives so that others may know the good news of our risen Lord.
This week, we continue by talking about what we believe and a look at the Apostle's Creed. Our focus today will be on the next two stanzas, “the communion of the saints and the forgiveness of sins.” These are two important beliefs of a follower of Jesus Christ because, in them, we find we are set free from the bondage of sin and enter a family that is as numerous as the stars.
This is a service of Holy Communion and the Tenebrae. We walk through the last supper and night of our Lord Jesus to remember the sacrifice He gave of Himself so that By His Wounds We Are Healed.
