Communion

THE SACRAMENT OF HOLY COMMUNION

The sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated regularly (every four to six weeks) at Crossroads during the thanksgiving part of the Sunday service.  We tend to celebrate communion on the "high holy Sundays" during the church year, as well as at special times such as Maundy Thursday and Christmas Eve. In this sacrament of the church, Christ's people remember him as the nourishing gift of our common life, given for our sake and for the sake of the world. At Crossroads we have an "open table," which means that anyone who is seeking to follow Jesus and live in him is welcome to celebrate this great feast at his table with us.

Children are welcome at the table at Crossroads, as followers of Jesus who have their own relationship with him and understanding of the gift of his transforming love. Parents are encouraged to speak with their children about the sacrament, and any "hard questions" can always be brought to one of our Ministers.
