“Celebrate! Our Annual Flower Communion Sunday” Sunday, June 8, 2025 I had a coach once who said when you are going up the mountain, you have to take time to go to the overlooks, take in how far you have come, celebrate and enjoy the view, and rehydrate before you move on. We will look back this Sunday, engage in our annual Flower Communion ritual to end our year, and prepare for our annual meeting. Bring a flower from your garden (or from your neighbors!) and come join in a time of taking in the view. Rev. Vanessa Rush Southern, Senior Minister; Rev. Laura Shennum, Minister of Congregational Life; Carmen Barsody, Worship Associate; Reiko Oda Lane, organist; UUSF Choir led by Mark Sumner, director; Wm.

Pastor Rob McCoy delivers a passionate Communion Sunday message from Luke 22:14–20, connecting the Lord's Supper to its Passover roots as an antidote to rising anti-Semitism. Sharing personal anecdotes from a San Diego Padres game and his upcoming Israel trip, he challenges believers to reject replacement theology and embrace their grafted-in heritage. Pastor Rob outlines moral, historical, identity, and prophetic tests facing the church, exposing the myth of a Palestinian state and condemning anti-Zionist ignorance. He calls for bold support of Israel's ancestral homeland, using communion to remind Christians of their Jewish Messiah and to evangelize Jewish friends, urging persistent prayer for restoration and truth in a world deceived by lies.Verse References: Luke 22 verses 14–20, Genesis 12 verse 3, Genesis 15 verse 18, Deuteronomy 1 verse 8, Ezekiel 37 verses 21–22, Ezekiel 37 verse 25, Matthew 2 verses 20–21, Amos 9 verse 15, Jeremiah 31 verses 35–37, Jeremiah 33 verses 20–22, Jeremiah 33 verses 25–26, Romans 11 verses 17–18, Acts 3 verses 19–21, 1 Corinthians 5 verse 7, Mark 14 verses 25–26, Jeremiah 31 verses 31–34Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information!https://godspeak.comPrayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

In this powerful Communion Sunday message, Pastor Alex shares how you position yourself for breakthrough. Through six key principles backed by Scripture, he teaches how aligning your heart with God opens the door to supernatural change. This message challenges you to go deeper in faith, seek God's presence above all, and trust that breakthrough is just around the corner. Scripture Reference: Mark 10:46-52 James 1:17 Mark 5:25-34 Jeremiah 29:13 Hebrews 4:12 Deuteronomy 28:1 Isaiah 1:19 Luke 5:1-6 Isaiah 66:2 James 4:6 2 Chronicles 7:14 Acts 3:19 Isaiah 61:3 2 Kings 3:15 -16 1 Samuel 16:23 2 Chronicles 20:20-22 Acts 16:16-26

[audio mp3="https://www.crossbridgeofocean.org/wp-content/uploads/sermons/2025/04/2025_04_06-1.mp3"][/audio] Authentic teachers, leaders, and born-again believers must learn and practice humble servanthood, born out of a love for the Perfect King-Servant, Jesus Christ. You see a wash basin and a towel before you, similar to the ones that Jesus used to illustrate how even the Creator of the universe leads by serving others. Last week, we talked about authentic giving, prayer, and fasting. This morning, we will let Jesus teach us how real leaders serve others for the glory of God and the furtherance of the gospel. This is contrary to the standards that our culture has established. Let's learn from the Master, Jesus, about the principles of servant leadership.

FH JBAY | COMMUNION SUNDAY | Pastor Lloyd Dillon | 05 January 2025 by Father's House SA
1-5-25 | This first Sunday of 2025, we are setting the tone for the whole year by dedicating the service to Communion and remembering Christ's sacrifice.
Today's sermon is different and unique. Join us for our Communion Sunday as we dive deep into God's presence and into what Communion is really about, the Lord's sacrifice. We reflect on what He suffered through, why He suffered and what that means now for us. We are THANKFUL this week and every week to know that God is at work within us. After this sermon, we encourage to partake in communion wherever you are watching, reflect on His sacrifice and thank God for all He has done and continues to do.
Jesus told us that we take communion in "remembrance of Him". This week as we prepare for the Lord's Supper, Pastor Paul teaches on some of the wonderful things we can "remember" about Jesus and what He purchased on the cross. Love Church is a Christian Church fam based in Menomonie, WI with a desire to experience & express the love of God. Join us in person Sundays at 10am!
I heard a well-worn story of a little girl who didn't want to go to kid's church, but wanted to join her parents for the main service. It happened to be a Communion Sunday, and when they passed the tray of cracker bits and small cup of juice, her mother noticed she was visibly disappointed. When the service was over her mother asked her how she liked the main service, and the little girl said: “I'm going to go back to kid's church next week. The snacks are better and you get way more juice!”She's not wrong, a nibble and a sip wouldn't cut it…if snack time was what this ritual was all about. But, for those of us who've encountered the One who is behind this ritual, we know it's far more than just a snack-break in church.This Sunday we'll be observing Communion (we put it off from last week because the text was more appropriate for it this week). We'll be reading 1 Cor 11:17-34 in our study of Paul's letter.As you read Paul's critique, you'll notice he states his harshest criticisms over this matter. What stands out to you as Paul's main complaint (you'll find it spelled out in v22)? Do you notice that the practice Paul describes doesn't really seem to match up with how we attend to this ceremony today? We'll look into that a bit on Sunday.When Paul says to examine ourselves before taking the bread and cup, what do you think he's wanting us to determine? What do you think eating and drinking “unworthily” might be? If you're not sure, v33-34 explain it pretty clearly. How might we be able to put Paul's instructions into place in our own practice of observing the Lord's Supper?I hope you can join us this Sunday as we examine this passage together, and join each other at the Lord's Table.Click here for a pdf of the teaching slideshow.
Pastor Gary BurdenSunday morning (Communion Sunday) - 11/03/20241 Kings 18Our world needs the main thing the Church has to offer: The Gospel of Jesus Christ.But the Church needs what only God can provide in order for it to effectively share the Gospel: a genuine heaven sent refreshing, renewing revival.An example of what happens when God truly shows up took place in the ultra-corrupt region of ancient Samaria through His uncorrupted prophet, Elijah.1.

October 6, 2024 Morning Service. Part of the Communion Sunday series. (John 6:53-69)
A Time to Remember Part 2 (Holy Communion Sunday)Mark 14:22-25; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 In my sermon this Sunday, "A Time to Remember," I will prompt the congregation to acknowledge and appreciate the individuals who have significantly shaped their lives. I will emphasize the importance of remembering and honoring them as a form of care. I will move on to discuss grace's crucial role — an unmerited, unconditional love from God — present at every stage of life, even before birth. The sermon recognizes four forms of grace: "Prevenient Grace," which represents God's continuous pursuit of establishing a relationship with us; "Convicting Grace," the realization of our faults and the need for repentance; "Justifying Grace," which sees us forgiven and in a right relationship with God; and "Sanctifying Grace," our response to God's love through deepening our relationship and living according to His will. Finally, "Perfecting Grace," evolves us into the form of Christ as we grow stronger in our faith and spirituality.I will then discuss the sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion as pathways for receiving such divine grace. The sermon clarifies that these sacraments are not about gaining salvation or God's favor, but rather as means to enrich our connection with God. The sermon emphasizes the role of Baptism in establishing our Christian identity and mission, while Holy Communion nourishes us spiritually. As a concrete physical representation of God's grace, Holy Communion uses bread and wine as symbols of God's love making it visible and tangible. The act becomes a "sign-act," where words, actions, and physical elements transmit God's love. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we encounter Christ at the Communion table, receiving the spiritual benefits available to us. Participating in Holy Communion over time reshapes us into Christ's image, healing our relationship with God and strengthening us to continue his work in the world.The sermon concludes with the reminder that participating in Holy Communion is a way of experiencing eternal life and uniting with Christ both in the present and the afterlife. I will reiterate the necessity of being grateful for God's love. The essence of this message is centered around remembrance, gratitude, and divine grace in the form of sacraments. We will then partake of Holy Communion. Grace and Peace,Stephen
Matthew 26:17-19, 26-30 We believe that communion is one of the two sacraments that we partake of in the church (the other being baptism). When we take communion often, it's possible that we can lose sight of what it really means as we numbly follow our traditions. But if we take the time to understand the magnitude of what we're doing when we take communion, it can change our perspective entirely. Communion is about: Intimacy Intent Inertia Crossroads – about heaven, earth, and the journey in between.
