Recognizing Jesus Through Ritual

Last Sunday we focused on Mary and how she recognized the resurrected Jesus when he called her by name. This week we focus on the Walk to Emmaus and how two disciples did not recognize Jesus until he broke bread with them. Even today, people still recognize Jesus through the sacrament of Holy Communion.

One question often asked at MCC is why we share Communion every week. We come from many church backgrounds and different traditions concerning the sacrament. I came from a tradition that shared The Lord's Supper once a quarter. Yet I have come to appreciate and desire sharing the sacrament each Sunday. I have seen people's eyes opened to recognize Jesus as we break bread together.

Join us Sunday as we dig into the story of two disciples who recognized the resurrected Jesus through the breaking of bread. Bring someone to church Sunday and invite them to share in the sacrament with you. Pray that they too may recognize Jesus as we worship together.
