Do This In Remembrance Of Me
1 Corinthians 11:23–26 (NKJV)
23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.
What we celebrate as the sacrament of Communion gets its origins from the Passover Seder. The Communion Cup is the Third Cup or the Cup of Redemption. The Communion Wafer is the Afikomen that is broken and distributed. The Passover Seder makes the connection between the events of Passover Week and the Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus!
Please make plans to join us for Passover this year. It is a full dinner, RSVP’s are required so we can plan for food. For more information visit easter.calvarysanclemente.org.
