Beliefs

Welcome to Calvary Chapel Abide, a sanctuary for those seeking spiritual growth and unity in the community. Our belief in the power of Communion is a cornerstone of our faith, serving as a moment of profound connection and reverence. Join us on this sacred journey as we explore the significance and practice of Communion.

Why Communion Matters

Communion, also known as the Lord's Supper or Eucharist, holds deep symbolic value within Christian traditions. It commemorates Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross and serves as a reminder of His presence among us. At Calvary Chapel Abide, we hold Communion in high regard, recognizing its transformative power within our spiritual lives.

The Essence of Communion

Communion represents the body and blood of Christ offered for the redemption of mankind. As we partake in this act, we participate in a sacred union with Him and with one another. It is a moment to reflect, repent, and acknowledge the tremendous love that God has displayed through His Son.

Your Personal Connection

At Calvary Chapel Abide, we believe that Communion offers an opportunity for personal reflection and connection with our Creator. It serves as a means to deepen our relationship with God and to realign our hearts with His purposes. As we partake in the bread and wine (or grape juice), we invite the Holy Spirit to work within us, transforming us from the inside out.

A Symbol of Unity

Communion is a powerful symbol of unity within the faith community. As we gather around the Lord's table, we recognize that we are all part of one body. This shared experience creates a sense of belonging and fosters a spirit of love, forgiveness, and reconciliation. Calvary Chapel Abide cherishes the communal aspect of Communion and integrates it into our regular worship services.

The Practice of Communion

At Calvary Chapel Abide, Communion is a solemn and sacred act that takes place during our worship gatherings. We follow the biblical tradition of using unleavened bread and grape juice, symbolizing the body and blood of Christ. The act of Communion is led by our dedicated pastors and elders, who guide our congregation through the significance and meaning of this timeless practice.

Preparation and Prayer

Before participating in Communion, we encourage our members to prepare their hearts through prayer and self-reflection. This intentional time allows individuals to examine their relationship with God and seek forgiveness where needed. It is a time to confess sins, express gratitude, and affirm our commitment to living faithfully.

Sharing the Elements

During the Communion service, the elements of bread and wine (or grape juice) are shared among the congregation. Our pastors distribute the elements, emphasizing the symbolism and significance behind each one. As participants receive the bread and wine, they are encouraged to partake in remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice, recognizing the price paid for their redemption.

Community and Fellowship

Communion is an invitation to extend grace, love, and forgiveness to one another. It serves as a reminder that we are all united in Christ, regardless of our differences. Calvary Chapel Abide encourages a spirit of community and fellowship during the Communion service, fostering an atmosphere of acceptance, humility, and support.
