For I have received of the Lord what I have
also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was
betrayed took a loaf of bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke
it, and said, “This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance
of me. In the same way he took the cup also after supper saying, “This
cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it,
in remembrance of me. For as often as you eat this bread, and drink the
cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
I Corinthians 11:23-26 (NRSV) From the Preamble of The Design of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ): "At the Table of the Lord we celebrate with thanksgiving the saving acts and presence of Christ" Sharing in the Lord's Supper is at the heart of what members of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) do when they gather for worship. At Hillcrest Christian Church, Christ is the host at the communion table. It is the Lord's Supper, and we come at His invitation. It is open to all believers and all are welcome. |
