WHY DO WE TAKE COMMUNION?
Communion, “The Lord’s Supper,” is a tradition given to the church by Jesus Christ which calls us to remember his death on the cross until he returns again. It is a unique and beautiful way of preaching the gospel through symbols - the broken bread symbolizes his body, the cup symbolizes his shed blood - just as Jesus described it at the Last Supper. Reserved for believers and intended to be done regularly until Christ returns, we take Communion on the first Sunday of each month and on other special occasions. In doing so, we preach the gospel to ourselves and to one another. All confessing believers in Jesus are invited to participate in the Lord’s Table with us, but God’s Word cautions us against taking Communion lightly. We are told to examine ourselves before we eat the bread and drink the cup - then we can celebrate our salvation in Christ with joy!
Passages to read:
Matthew 26:26-29, Luke 22:16-20,
1 Corinthians 11:17-34

MISSIONS MOMENT | Scott & Mary Peterson
You are invited to pray for our FCC missionaries. These next two weeks we want to remember Scott & Mary Peterson who serve among refugees here in the Denver area. Here is how you can be praying for them this week:
- Praise for meal kits distributed to struggling refugee families in Denver area
- Praise the Lord for the 22 Christian leaders from a South Asian country who went through Crisis debriefing training with Mary; pray that these leaders will be resilient and wise in facing pressure and persecution
- Pray for wisdom and favor with refugees and for the Lord to lead the Petersens to those open to the gospel
Thank you for interceding on behalf of our missionaries!
