Communion Statement
We celebrate the Lord's Supper on the first, third, and fifth Sundays (and their corresponding Saturday night services) each month. This is the meal that Jesus hosts to give us His true body and blood for the forgiveness of our sins and for strengthening our faith. 

 

COMMUNION STATEMENT

Baptized individuals who believe Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior, and that He is present in the Sacrament (Christ’s body and blood ARE received along with the bread and wine); and who are willing, with the help of the Holy Spirit, to seek forgiveness and amend their lives in accordance with His will are invited to join us in the Lord’s Supper. This means:

  • I believe and trust in Jesus Christ, true God and true man, as my only Savior from sin, death and Satan (John 3:16; 1 Timothy 3:16).
  • I believe that together with the bread and wine, I also receive Christ's true body and blood which is truly present in the Sacrament for my forgiveness (Matt. 26:26, 28; 1 Corinthians 10:16).
  • I freely acknowledge I am a sinner and come to the Lord's Table believing I will receive its chief blessing; the forgiveness of sins (1 John 1:8-9; Matthew 26:28; 1 John 1:7).
  • I am sorry for my sins and resolve with the help of the Holy Spirit to amend my sinful life (2 Corinthians 7:10-11; Ephesians 4:22-24).
  • I forgive those who have sinned against me and am not refusing to be reconciled with anyone (Matthew 5:23-24; Matthew 6:15).

Children are welcome to come forward to receive a blessing. Should you have any questions please talk to Pastor Skip, Deacon Jo, or Deacon Dennis.
