This Sunday is the first Sunday of September, and there will be a communion. The chancel choir will lift up a communion anthem " If we truly believe". Even though it will be a long weekend of Labor day, we will lift up our hearts to the Lord in worship service.
Here is the text.
Let us come to the table of our Lord, He bids us pause and leave our troubles here. As we bow in prayer, the comfort of these words gives us strength to lay aside our fears.
Refrain: "Take and eat, this is His body, take and drink, this is His blood; Freely given for you and for me. Take and eat, this is the promise; take and drink, this is the love; This is the hope that can set our spirits free, if we truly believe."
As we rise to go in different ways, Although we all have separate lives to live, we are joined as one in communion with our Lord by this gift which He alone can give.
