Pastor's Article 11-30-25

I hope you enjoyed Thanksgiving celebrations with friends and family. For many, this season is an opportunity to reflect not only on the value of shared meals but also on their impact. Gathering around the table fosters connection, much as it did when Jesus met with His disciples for their final meal prior to His crucifixion. During this occasion, He emphasized His love for them and entrusted them with the continuation of His life and ministry. This event established the Lord’s Supper, marking a significant transition for the disciples as they prepared to witness His sacrificial death, burial, and resurrection. Subsequently, they were tasked with laying the foundation of the New Testament Church.

The Lord’s Supper is a time for us to reflect on God’s love, demonstrated by His giving His only begotten Son. Jesus, fulfilling the Father’s will, willingly gave His life on Calvary to pay our debt of sin. As the Bread of Heaven was offered, broken, and received, it grants us the eternal life we need to live forever. Today, as we break bread together at the Lord’s table, we remember the sacrifice that made our eternal life possible. I hope this reflection draws you closer to God as you consider His immense love for you.

Pastor,
Rev. Wayne Marcus
