The Silent Meditation upon Entering the Sanctuary

Jesus essentially says to us: “I call you only to do those things you were created to do, and you will find therefore that My yoke is easy. I put on you the burden of following Me, but I have already paid the price, so that when you fail you will be forgiven. I’ve taken off you the burdens that other people have. I’ve removed the burden of earning your own salvation through your striving and effort. I’ve removed the burden of guilt or shame for past failures. I’ve taken off the burden of having to prove yourself worthy of love. I am therefore the only Lord and Master Who, if you find Me, will satisfy

you, and, if you fail Me, will forgive you.”— TIM KELLER

The Lord's Supper

The Invitation to and Fencing of the Table

Family of God, as we draw near to the Lord’s Supper to celebrate Holy Communion of the Body and Blood of Christ, let us be grateful and remember that our Lord instituted this sacrament as a perpetual reminder of His dying for our sakes and as a pledge of

His undying love for us.

Therefore, Jesus bids us to come to Him in this sacrament in knowledge, faith, repentance, love, and with hearts hungering and thirsting for Him. If we are willingly and stubbornly living in sin, lacking peace in our relationships with others, secretly relying on our own good works for favor with God, then we are warned by God’s Word not to receive this sacrament.

But all who are truly sorry for their sins and long to be delivered from the burden of them; all who are weary from brokenness and long to be filled with the life of Christ; all who are doubting and need the assuring embrace of God; all who humbly put their trust in Christ and desire His grace that they may lead a holy life; and, all who are baptized members in an evangelical church, are invited and encouraged in His name to join us in the celebration of the Lord’s Supper. Let us therefore come that we be refreshed and find rest for our souls.

If you are not in a saving relationship with God through Christ today, do not take the bread and cup, but take Christ and receive Him in your heart as those around you receive the meal. Then, immediately following the service, come and tell a minister or one of our leaders what you have done so we can prepare you to receive communion next time as a child of God.

Ye seed of Israel's chosen race, ye ransomed of the fall,hail Him Who saves you by His grace, and crown Him Lord of all;hail Him Who saves you by His grace, and crown Him Lord of all.

Let ev'ry kindred, ev'ry tribe, on this terrestrial ball,to Him all majesty ascribe, and crown Him Lord of all;to Him all majesty ascribe, and crown Him Lord of all.

O that with yonder sacred throng we at His feet may fall!we'll join the everlasting song, and crown Him Lord of all;we'll join the everlasting song, and crown Him Lord of all.

• The Benediction of God’s Grace and The Congregation’s AMEN
