"Do This In Remembrance Of Me"
Often when we think of going to Church it is an activity we do for a short time and hope we feel good about it afterwards. Well we think there is more to it than that and therefore the word community. It is based on the fact that what we hold to from the Word of God we hold in Common. Pictured are folks from Jamaica, Canada, Nigeria and the U.S. Most are in the Church in Littleton.
When we think of the New Testament churches, it is clear reading in the book of the Acts that the churches were places that stressed having fellowship with each other. Acts 2: 41-42 gives us a key verse for knowing what the Lord expected from his followers. Those that believed were baptized and then added to the church. They had the privilege of being identified with each other as servants of Christ! Then the scripture goes on to say, they devoted themselves to the apostles teaching, the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. This is not merely an activity like a dinner together, but a unity of purpose and service together as a local church and then as churches linked together by a common doctrine.
The focus of our lives should be the Worship of God. It is one of the great privileges of the Church experience. Our worship service is most likely a little bit unique but I would suggest, very scriptural. The Lord gave us His command before He left for home, Do this in remembrance of Me. It was during the breaking of bread and the drinking of the wine that he gave this command. Therefore we do this each week as our first activity. The whole focus of our worship is on Christ and what He has done for us. The time of worship is filled with hymns of praise and the prayers are those of thanksgiving. It is not a time to ask of God but to give to Him who has given all for us. Please check out statement of beliefs under the heading ministry.
