Communion
2021-05-02, 2021-06-06, 2021-07-04 | CA
Come join us the first Sunday of the month for Communion.
“For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread. And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup.”
1st Corinthians 11:23-28

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20)
