On this Easter Sunday— I encourage you as a family to conduct the Lord’s Supper in your home.  Listed below is the order of service.

 

Read Luke 22:7-22

 

Then the leader in the home may say:

 

We now come to observe the ordinance of the Lord’s supper, given to us to celebrate in memory of his broken body and shed blood.  It is said that on the night before He was betrayed, at the conclusion of the feast of the Passover,  in which He and His disciples were celebrating; He took bread and having blessed it, brake it and gave to His disciples and said, “This is my body, which is given for you.”

 

Pray

 

Break and pass out the bread and read the following:

 

John 6:58.  This is the bread which came down out of Heaven; not as the fathers ate, and died; He that eateth this bread shall live forever.”

 

On that same night, our Lord took the cup and having blessed it and gave it to His disciples and said, “This is my blood which was shed for you.”

 

Prayer

 

Pass out the drink

 

Read Hebrews 9:22

        1 John 1:7

 

“For as often as yet eat this bread and drink the cup, ye proclaim the Lord’s death till he come.”  1 Corinthians 11:20

 

(Items you will need:  any fruit juice or water, appropriate cups, crackers or bread— on a plate)

 

You should choose the time that best fits your family.

 

In Christ,

 

Bro. Don
