Lord’s Supper
The purpose of this blog is to give visitors to our website an opportunity to discover what life at Northpark is like. The blog is trying to give readers a clear picture of our priorities as a church. One of the clear priorities of our church is the celebration of the Lord’s Supper. Our church celebrates the Lord’s Supper each Sunday as remembrance of the death and resurrection of Jesus. It is a very special part of the service.
Our service begins each week with a moment of silence as a church family. In this moment of silence, we acknowledge that God is on in his throne in heaven and is at the same time among us as prepare our hearts to worship him. After a time of worship which is designed to bring us to the cross, we then engage in a devotional thought to remind us of the importance of the Lord’s Supper to our daily walk with Jesus. After this thought people are invited to go to various tables spread around the sanctuary and partake of the elements at the tables or return to their seats and partake.
This past Sunday (July 3rd) one of the men of the congregation led us in the devotional thought. He began that thought reminding us that though this was the 4th of July weekend, and the focus of the weekend was a celebration of independence that he was glad for the opportunity through the Lord’s Supper to declare his dependence on God. It is exactly this that makes the Lord’s Supper such a vital part of Life at Northpark.
You are invited to join us for this aspect of life at Northpark. We observe an open table. This means that if you are a believer of Jesus and the work, he accomplished on the cross you are invited to join us in the Lord’s Supper. You do not need to be a member of our church. Come join us any Sunday and see how we acknowledge the importance of the Lord’s Supper as a vital and necessary part of Life at Northpark.
