Dear friends,
We are a Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) congregation. That means that we take communion every week. I have often times wondered what would happen if we just decided one Sunday to not take communion.
Would anyone notice? If we didn’t address it at all, would anyone feel compelled enough to come up to someone and ask why? Or would we all just go on with our week and not think twice about it?
This week we are continuing our journey through the gospel of Luke. Luke was clearly a foodie because he talks about meals with Jesus all the time. If we skipped communion one week, Luke would notice. He would protest and maybe find a different church home because for Luke, the imagery of a meal represents the presence of Jesus.
This week we are talking about a meal in which Jesus challenged where we sit at meals and who is invited to join us. Things might get weird this Sunday, so I hope you will join us as we explore who we might end up sharing a meal with.
See you Sunday,
Corey
