Virtual Communion on Easter Sunday

Blessings dearest church,

During our continued time of social distancing and online/virtual church, Holy Week is busy and with a few twists. 

One twist will be Communion on Resurrection Sunday.  I have a brief video showing some ideas for you.  

To help you prepare I am recommending that you find elements around already in your homes.  Please do not go out

just to get bread and grape juice.  Options for the bread element include: soup crackers, salty crackers,

baked cheese crackers, wheat crackers, buttery crackers, tortilla chips, or a slice of bread.  Of course there are

other alternatives, but these are a few ideas.  As for the juice, options include: grape juice, orange juice, apple juice, 

even iced tea, or if you are of age and sound mind perhaps a small bit of adult grape juice.

The point is that we will not be partaking from the same physical table, but from the same virtual table. 

It is Christ’s table, and what is important is the spirit in which we do so together.  Therefore, I will consecrate all elements, 

those physically before me, and those physically before you at the same time when we are worshipping together.  

Please do not be concerned if what is available to you is not exactly what I have, or what we typically serve in the sanctuary.  

It is the act of remembrance and the solidarity that is most important in this meal, especially in this moment.

In Christ,

Pastor Jeff
