Bible Text: Matthew 26:17-46Series: Holy Week 2023 | Jesus institutes what we have come to call the Eucharist, the Lord’s Supper, or Communion.
Focus Verses:
26While they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed it, broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, “Take and eat. This is my body.” 13He took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from this, all of you.” 28 This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many so that their sins may be forgiven.
We encourage you to read the entire story found in the Gospel of Matthew 26:17-46, and think about these questions:
What difference does the Lord’s Supper make in our lives?
Does the meal we share on Sunday nourish our lives outside the church walls?
Prayer: Holy God, thank you for the gift of your own body and blood. Let that gift strengthen us in the knowledge of your extraordinary love. Amen.
