Did you know that John Calvin advocated for weekly communion in the church? The Lord’s Supper is rarely celebrated weekly in Reformed churches, as you may know. The Worship Ministry is planning weekly communion during the Sundays in Lent as a way to express our desire for God, our yearning for God’s graces. We hope that each Sunday will renew our discipleship as the body of Christ in receiving the sacrament. There are various aspects of communion, perhaps most traditionally perceived as penitential and as meal or feast.
Just as much of our liturgy and song become a part of us, we hope that the practice of feasting on Christ’s body and blood will nourish and renew us as we internalize the visible means of grace. As the Worship Ministry continues to engage the congregation, please let us know how you experienced this practice of weekly communion during Lent. Come to the Feast!
