I’m often asked what the vision is for our church family. I find it kind of hard to answer. I don’t believe the projects & goals we might like to see accomplished should be what unites us. Amazingly Jesus didn’t give us a vision statement to remember Him by. He gave us a covenant affirming meal. And He did it in the context of denial, betrayal and shattered dreams.

What unites us is Christ. His blood has purchased us, His body broken so that His body the Church can be united and whole.

The Apostle Paul puts it this way;

‘The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? For we, the many, are one bread and one body; for we are all partakers of that one bread.’     1 Cor 10:16-17

When we break bread together we covenant with each other to share our lives. When we share the cup we make blood covenant to be there for each other when it counts, when we are failed and disappointed.

Jesus claimed they would know we are His disciples by our love. Love counts most and is noticed when there is a reason not to love.

lets do this, in remembrance of Him.
