The Sacrament of Holy Communion is a sign of God’s grace present through the physical elements, offering the Gospel promise that all who come to Christ in repentance and faith receive new life in him.

In Holy Communion, also known as the Lord’s Supper or the Eucharist (from the Greek word for “thanksgiving”), we are invited into fellowship with the real, spiritual presence of Christ Jesus in the whole of the Sacrament; we participate in the communion of saints with the Church universal; and we are given a foretaste of God’s eternal banquet, the marriage supper of the Lamb.  

Communion is offered to all who repent of sin, and desire to draw near to God and lead a life of obedience to Christ.

Holy Communion is normally celebrated in the midst of the congregation, physically gathered to remember and respond to God’s mighty acts of salvation revealed in Holy Scripture. 

Holy Communion recalls Jesus’s actions at the Last Supper: he took the bread and cup, gave thanks, broke the bread, and gave it to his disciples.

Communion is observed and celebrated on the first Sunday of each month by intinction (all are invited to come forward, receive the bread, and dip into the cup/juice). All bread is Gluten Free.

Those who choose not to receive the eucharistic elements for whatever reason are still encouraged to come forward to receive a blessing. 

Baptism is a sacrament in which God uses water as a means of divine grace. Baptism is the act of God through the grace of Jesus Christ and the work of the Holy Spirit. It is a symbol of rebirth and repentance by one who has accepted Christ and has repented of their sins.

Baptism of Children

Baptism is very important to God and to this church. We consider it a privilege to baptize a child. The founder of the Methodist movement, John Wesley, stated, “The baptism of young children is to be retained in the church.”  However, we recognize that some parents choose to save baptism until a child is old enough to make that decision on their own. This often takes place at the time of confirmation.  

If you are interested in being baptized or having your child baptized, contact the church office.
