Reflection:
First Christian Church Edmond is a part of The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) denomination. This denomination often self-describes as “people of the table.” This is descriptive, in that we celebrate communion each week. But it is more than just a logistical statement – It’s a statement of identity.
We are people of Christ’s table, the table of grace. It is around this table that we experience grace and community; it’s where we find our identity. It’s at this table where all kinds of people can be interrupted by God’s grace.
We Gather at the Lord’s Table
Jesus didn’t put any rules around coming to the table, so neither do we. All are loved and embraced here and all are welcome at this table of Love. Our communion bread is gluten free. We come forward to the table to receive bread and cup at 9AM, we pass the bread and cup at 11AM. Please place your empty cup in the rack on the pew back. If you are worshipping from home, we invite you to find bread and juice or other elements to use as we share this feast.
We Greet and Go Forth
Engage with your neighbor as you go out to serve and carry God’s love to the world.
