Do This in Remembrance of Me
At the Last Supper, Jesus broke bread and shared the cup, commanding His disciples to continue this practice in His memory. This sacred meal is meant to be repeated regularly as a way of remembering Christ's sacrifice and proclaiming it to the world. It matters because it anchors believers in the gospel story and unites them across all ages. Participating in communion keeps you grounded in gratitude, connects you to your church family, and reorients your heart toward Christ's return.

This do in remembrance of me
Luke 22:19
Jesus institutes a perpetual memorial that keeps His sacrifice central to Christian worship - every celebration re-proclaims the gospel until He returns.
19nd he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
Did You Know?
The Lord's Supper is not a mere memorial. It is a proclamation. We proclaim His death until He comes. The table looks backward to the cross and forward to the wedding supper.
Jesus said "Do this in remembrance of Me." The focus is not on our experience or feelings. It is on Him. The bread and the cup keep the gospel central in the life of the church.
Every celebration of communion is a rehearsal for the day when we will drink it new with Him in the kingdom. The table is a promise that the story is not over.
