The Sacrament of Holy Communion

We celebrate Holy Communion, or the Lord's Supper, once a month and in observance of other special church holy days. Communion is prepared and served from our altar table. We serve communion in a variety of ways according to the occasion. The United Methodist Church observes an open communion table. This means that the communion table is open to all persons who sincerely desire to grow in their love of God and their neighbor, regardless of any, or no, church affiliation. You are invited to kneel at the prayer rail after receiving communion if you choose. The bread and grape juice used in communion are blessed by ordained clergy during the service. After the service, the consecrated bread and juice are taken to our homebound members. Unused bread is fed to birds and unused juice is poured into the earth.
