Communion____________________________________________________________ 1. Intro: Greet SMILE !!! JOY!! 2. Ask for 2 volunteers to hold bread and drink.

[Continue with Intro as the people come up] Dwells perspective is: 1) Communion is a ritual, but more importantly its relational. 2) Communion expresses...our remembrance of Jesus and the Restoration Hes done in the PAST, is doing the PRESENT, and will do in the FUTURE. Everyone is invited to participate, Dwell is an open community. If Communion is something you dont think relates to you, theres no pressure to participate, you can sit back and enjoy the song. 3. Begin Liturgy: Leader: The table of the bread and cup is now ready. Its the table of a great mystery revealed: friendship and effortless union with God. Its the table of love in Jesus and his cross. Its the table of trust. Its the table of rest, not in what we can do for God, but in what Jesus has already done for us. Its the table of joy in the new wine of Gods work, for he has puried us from all sin. Its the table of Freedom- the old life is gone, a completely new life has begun! " " So come to this table, you who have much faith and you who would like to have more today; you who have been here often and you who havent been for a long time; you who have tried to follow Jesus, and you who have failed; Come. Its Jesus who invites us to meet him here. You can now come up to take the communion and wait until everyone has taken their seat so we can eat together. [Offer communion to worship team]. [After all have the elements].Now lets say this together. All:" Jesus, to whom will we go? You have the words of Life. We have trusted and recognized that you are the One who sets us free. In you we see our true beginning and completeness. Leader: See, the Body of Jesus was broken for you and the blood of Jesus poured out for the forgiveness of sins. Here is Jesus giving himself to us in the bread and the cup. Take and eat.

Optional: Right up to now, weve been relating with God through songs, words, and actions.God also says in Psalm 46, Be stillandknowthat I am God. SoGod calls us to relax and let go because he is greater than our striving and worries.Its a quiet moment when you can give thanks or surrender a problem to God. So lets take a moment of together [30 sec] Now lets say this together. All:" Thank you God for your goodness to us. Your bread restores our strength, giving new energy to tired limbs, new thoughts to weary minds. Your cup restores our spirits, giving new vision to dry spirits, new warmth to cold hearts. May we know your presence in the sharing of this food and drink, so that we may know your touch and presence in all things. Leader: The peace of Christ is [in/with/for] you! All:" And also... [in/with/for] you!
