The Word of Grace church family gathered in worship

The Lord’s Table

Remember. Proclaim. Receive.

In Communion, the church gathers around the finished work of Jesus—remembering His sacrifice, proclaiming His death, and receiving again the assurance of His grace.

Come to the table

What Communion means

A sacred remembrance of Christ.

On the night He was betrayed, Jesus took bread and the cup and gave them to His disciples as signs of His body given and His blood poured out for the forgiveness of sins.

We do not come because we are worthy. We come because Christ is worthy. The Table directs our eyes away from self-reliance and back to the Savior whose once-for-all sacrifice is sufficient for all who trust Him.

“For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.”1 Corinthians 11:26

At the Lord’s Table

The gospel is remembered by the gathered church.

Look back

Remember His cross

The bread and cup call us to remember the body of Christ given for us and His blood shed for the forgiveness of sins.

Look within

Examine your heart

We come honestly—confessing sin, discerning the body, and resting in the mercy Christ freely gives to repentant believers.

Look around

Receive one another

Communion is a family meal. At one Table, the church remembers that grace has made many people one body in Christ.

Look ahead

Hope for His return

Every celebration points forward. We proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes and anticipate the feast of His coming kingdom.

First Sunday of each month

A table of grace for the people of God.

Word of Grace normally celebrates Communion during Sunday worship on the first Sunday of the month. The pastors guide the church through Scripture, prayer, reflection, and the sharing of the bread and cup.

If you are visiting, have questions about participating, or would like to speak with a pastor about faith in Christ, please ask. We would be honored to listen without pressure.

Until He comes

Christ is our peace.

“This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.”

1 Corinthians 11:25
