The book of Lamentations is a hard pill to swallow. What’s behind all the poet’s ranting? Is there any hope? Perhaps we need to look “Beyond the Conjunctions…” Read Lamentations 3: 19-26 in preparation for the sermon.
World Communion Sunday offers congregations a distinctive opportunity to experience Holy Communion in the context of the global community of faith. The first Sunday of October has become a time when Christians in every culture break bread and pour the cup to remember and affirm Christ as the Head of the Church. On that day, they remember that they are part of the whole body of believers. Whether shared in a grand cathedral, a mud hut, outside on a hilltop, in a meeting house, or in a storefront, Christians celebrate the communion liturgy in as many ways as there are congregations. World Communion Sunday can be both a profound worship experience and a time for learning more about our wider community of faith.
