Today is the day we give thanks for the gift of the Eucharist. Holy Communion is the re-enactment of the last supper, the last meal that Jesus shared with his disciples before his crucifixion. It was actually the Passover sedar, but Jesus knew that this time death was not going to Passover him. He gave us specific instructions (see our Gospel reading) and said to do this in his memory. The Messianic Shabbat prayers used on Friday nights on this website and the Eucharist (Holy Communion) said in Christian Church’s throughout the world is in obedience to his instruction.

When you make confession, then receive the Eucharist, you are leaning, not on another person's prayers or faith, but upon simple trust in God's covenant! Jesus is true to His covenant established with His Body and Blood. The Bible states that “by his stripes we are healed”, the whipping he bore on his body....therefore any who are sick should seek to take Holy Communion as in the “bread of Life” his body. The wine, his blood, of redemption from sin. Ask God for your healing then receive Holy Communion. Just remember this is Sacred and Holy.
