WTTW HIS BODY, HIS BLOOD

Psalm 95:6



Come, let us bow down in worship,

let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;



GOD'S BODY & BLOOD



PREPARATION



"Elements"



To participate in the Lord’s Supper you will need a piece of bread & a small cup of juice or wine.



"Heart"



The Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 11:27-28 says, “Therefore, whoever eats and drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself.



PRAISE



Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord, God of power and might: Heaven and Earth are full of you glory. Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.



LORD’S SUPPER



In the night in which he was betrayed,

our Lord Jesus took bread,

and gave thanks; broke it,

and gave it to his disciples

saying: Take and eat;

this is my body, given for you.



Do this in remembrance of me.



Again, after supper,

He took the cup, gave thanks,

and gave it for all to drink,

saying: This cup is

the new covenant in my blood,

shed for you and for all people

for the forgiveness of sin.



Do this in remembrance of me



THE LORD’S PRAYER



Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Thy Kingdom come,

thy will be done,

on earth as it is in heaven

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass

against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,

the power and the glory.

For ever and ever.

Amen



COMMUNION SCRIPTURES



“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34-35



Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Philippians 2:3-4



Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. 1 Peter 2:11     



“So I strive always to keep my conscience clear before God and man.”             Acts 24:16



And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. Hebrews 11:6



“In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16





COMMUNION



The body of Christ, given for you.

(take & eat the piece of bread)



The blood of Christ, shed for you.

(take & drink the juice or wine)



CLOSING PRAYER



We give you thanks,

almighty God, that you

have refreshed us

through the healing

power of this gift of

life, and we pray that

in your mercy you

would strengthen us,

through this gift,

in faith toward you and in

fervent love toward one

another; for the sake of

Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen
