On Sunday, we will celebrate World Communion Sunday, an ecumenical date when several churches covenant to share the Lord's Supper on the same day. Given that we gather at the Lord's Table every time we worship, we will make our celebration special in different ways, including by using different types of bread.
Sunday is also the beginning of our Month of the Ministry celebration, which will last throughout October. This week, we will show appreciation for our elders and their ministry.
The current sermon series, "If We Are the Body..." will continue with a focus on Christ's description of communion as a sharing in his body and his blood. In previous sermons, we have focused on the wholeness of the body, as in last week's "Scarred, Not Broken." This week, we will explore the importance of Christ's words to his disciples at the Last Supper in "My Body, Broken." As I prepare, I believe that the most important word is "my." But we'll consider that on Sunday.
