Lord's Supper

In the sacraments the triune God is active, and while what exactly happens during the sacraments is a mystery, we know they are given to us as signs of grace and seals of God’s promise. This is true when we come to the table regardless of what we call it. Some call it the Lord’s Supper, a reminder of the Last Supper where Christ was the host. Some call it the Eucharist, highlighting our response of thanksgiving and the great prayer of thanksgiving which is central to its celebration. Still other communities call it communion, underscoring the truth that through our participation, we are not just communing with Jesus and expressing our oneness with him, but also our unity with Christians of all times and places. 

 

Regardless of the name we choose, we are welcomed to the table by Christ himself and leave spiritually nourished.
