We will celebrate Communion next Sunday, July 6 at BMMC. Anyone who has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is invited to join us in communion! Interested in knowing what we believe about communion? The full position statement from the Missionary Church about communion is as follows: b. The Lords Supper. We believe the Lords Supper was instituted by Christ Himself on the night of His betrayal. We believe that it is as a memorial of Christs death, a center of communion and fellowship, a testimony to saving faith, and a visible seal of Christs redemptive covenant. It is to be observed only by the children of God and consists in partaking of the consecrated emblems of bread and the fruit of the vine, which symbolize the death of Christ for the remission of our sins and our continual dependence upon Him for life and sustenance until He comes. While the Lords Supper is open to all true believers regardless of denomination, each one is strongly exhorted to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. Matt. 26:26‑30; Luke 22:15‑20; 1 Cor. 10:16, 11:23-24
