Preparation for Holy Communion
Invited to the Lord’s table
In the moments of celebrating Holy Communion, the minister makes two declarations:
Christ’s tender care

Until He comes
We will now celebrate Holy Communion in remembrance of what Jesus did, but also with a view to His return: "Until He comes again."
A meal of gratitude and victory
We celebrate Holy Communion as a thank-you meal. As we celebrate Communion together, we thank the Lord for His sacrifice ...
