Let the children come

Rev Neti serves communion to the boys
Have you ever had a friend who moved away? What are some of the things you have done to remember that friend?

There are people who are very special to us and even if they are not in the room right here with us, we love talking about them and remembering all the great things we have done together with them.

Jesus is a friend like that. Jesus loves you so much - and wants to be your BFF. He wants you to remember how much he loves you.

A special way we can do this is something called 'The Lord's Supper' (also called 'Communion'). Not long before Jesus died, he shared a meal with his friends. He shared bread and wine with them and told them whenever they ate and drank this to remember him and how much he loved them.

Neti shared bread and juice (not real wine!) with our Awesome Kids and told us whenever we are eating our sandwich or hamburger - to remember how much Jesus loves us, and wants us to share that love with others.

Afterwards, Neti asked James to serve communion to him. It was a very special communion service - thank you Neti!
