Monthly Communion
Dr Michael & Laura Fuqua
Break bread the first Sunday of each month during our Praise & Worship Service.
- Remembrance (Memorial): It is a direct response to Jesus’ command, "Do this in remembrance of me," recalling his broken body and shed blood.
- Proclamation: It acts as a visible, tangible, and audible message of the Gospel (death, resurrection, and return of Christ) to those present and to the world.
- New Covenant: It signifies the new covenant in Jesus' blood, providing forgiveness of sins.
- Fellowship (Communion): It symbolizes unity among believers as one body in Christ.
