Completing the Work Advent Dec 9, 2018
Yahweh, your God, is in your midst. Do not let your hands grow weak. Yahweh, your God, is in your midst. Zephaniah 3:16-17
I am confident of this, that the one who began a good work among you will bring it to completion by the day of Jesus the Messiah. Philippians 1:6 (NRSV)
This is my prayer: that your love might become even more and more rich with knowledge and all kinds of insight.
This is my prayer: that your love might become even more and more rich with knowledge and all kinds of insight. I pray this so that you will be able to decide what really matters and so you will be sincere and blameless on the day of the Messiah. I pray that you will then be filled with the fruit of righteousness, which comes from Jesus the Messiah, in order to give glory and praise to God. Philippians 1:9-11
Communion: Jesus invites everyone to the Lord’s Table To participate, gather around a nearby table. Wait for a circle to assemble. Pass the matzo/bread until each person takes some. The bread of life. Eat together. Pass the cups of grape juice to each other. Wait until everyone has one. The cup of the new covenant. Drink together. Stay and pray as long as you like. If you want to take communion on your own or with a partner, wait until the first communal circle is finished, and then proceed to the table as you are ready. People are available around the sanctuary to pray with you.
