For Our Weekend Readers

World Communion Weekend ~ Sunday, October 1st is celebrated by the church around the world as 'World Communion Sunday'. Beginning in 1936 in the Presbyterian Church, the first Sunday in October every year was set aside as a day for the church to especially consider their connection as the Body of Christ with other believers around the world as we partake in the Eucharist. Since that time many denominations and independent congregations globally have joined in. So this weekend, brothers and sisters around the world in different cultures will be worshipping at the Lord's Table. This weekend (both Saturday night and Sunday morning) at Christ's Church, come prepared to Commune with the Lord - and with the Body of Christ around the world! It might be a blessing for you to give 1 Corinthians 11:23-29 and Ephesians 2:11-22 a read as you prepare your heart.

As we come together at Christ's Church to worship, Jesse has a great music set planned to usher us into the Lord's presence. We will sing music by Jeff Deyo and David Crowder among others. For those who have been in the 'Calvinism Conversation' here on the blog - I see that 'Wholly Yours' is on the list. What timing, eh?

We will study together the fourth of the 'Letters to the Church' in Revelation 2, this week it's Thyatira in 2:18-29. As I've been saying each week, it might be a blessing for you to glance back thru Revelation 1 and the first 17 verses of chapter 2, just to have a clear view of the overall context as we study.

I hope you will consider venturing out tonight (Saturday at 5:30pm) to try our new service schedule. Of course, our children's programs Kid's Connection and Little Kid's Connection run tomorrow (Sunday at 10am). Whether I see you tonight or tomorrow, I look forward to worshipping the Lord together with you - and the church around the world!
