This is the table of the Risen Lord Jesus Christ
Behold his broken body - the broken bread
Behold his spilled blood - the poured wine
Behold his amazing love - in the remembering and sharing here
These elements laid out before us
come to life as the Risen Christ strides along this table
strides through our lives,
strides through our towns and villages and communities
breathing hope
breathing forgiveness
breathing love that knows no bounds
Young and old
friend and stranger
pilgrim or resident alien
The Lord Jesus makes space for you at this table
offering nourishment
offering fellowship
offering communion with all the saints in heaven and on earth.
Take, Eat. To remember him.
