We had a fabulous Lord’s Supper at our community yesterday. When we started the church we decided to bring the meal back to Communion, Wolfgang Simson said:

“Church tradition has managed to “celebrate the Lord’s Supper” in a homeopathic and deeply religious form, characteristically with a few drops of wine, a tasteless cookie and a sad face. However, the “Lord’s Supper” was actually more a substantial supper with a symbolic meaning, than a symbolic supper with a substantial meaning. God is restoring eating back into our meeting.”

Eating back into our meeting …

Our community sat around tables and everyone bought something. The air was filled with wonderful food fragrances and the cadence of community filled the atmosphere. Christ was the guest of Honor and we took a few hours to Remember and Anticipate his coming and coming again.

During our time together we showed five verses on the screen and asked each person around the table to share with which one they identified most. One of the gals shared that her journey took a significant change of direction earlier in the morning. She told us that she hid from God for the last few years, trying to run away from him. “I guess this morning I am allowing myself to be found”, was her words to us.

God is good…
