Celebrating the Lord's Last Supper - Part #2
Celebrating the Lord's Last Supper And First Breaking Of Bread Service - Part #2
Hi there and welcome to this very special "memorial" event that we celebrate with both great sorrow and great joy!
Here is a suggested simple process when having *The Lord's Supper alone or with a small group - online or face-to-face. *ps. aka Breaking of Bread or Holy Communion.
Step #1: Reading Introduction
Luke 22:14 - 22 (listen to podcast #1 here: https://bit.ly/LastSupperFirstCommunion. Then "Break Bread" during the podcast or reading of the alternative reading version of Mark's gospel below.
(*ps. Humanity? Wait for the shocker when you read from verse 23 onward... see the disciples, surrounded by Jesus' love and presence begin to argue about who is best among them... How crazy can humans get? Yes, actually this is us! Biblical characters just reflect us to ourselves.)
Step #2: Listen to the following song
"In Christ Alone" (My Hope Is Found) - Adrienne Liesching | LYRIC VIDEO

Step #3: Next reading
Isaiah 53 (listen to an audio 2 - podcast #2 coming soon). Essential text reading below [The Suffering Servant].

READINGS
#1: The Last Supper
While Jesus and his disciples were eating, he took a loaf of bread. He thanked God for it. Then he broke the bread into pieces. He gave some of it to each of his disciples. ‘Take this bread and eat it,’ he said to them. ‘This is my body.’
Then Jesus took a cup. He thanked God for the wine in the cup. Then he gave the cup to them and they all drank from it.
Jesus said to them, ‘This is my blood that shows God's promise. When I die, my blood will pour out of my body. In that way God will save many people. That is the promise that God makes because of my death.' Mark 14:22-24
#2: The Suffering Servant
"People did not respect him. They refused to accept him.
He was a man who received much pain. He knew what it felt like to be weak and ill.
People did not even want to look at him. They did not respect him.
We decided that he was worth nothing.
But he took away all our weakness! He carried our pain for us.
We thought that God was punishing him. We thought that he was in pain
because of his own sins.
But it was our sins that caused him to be hurt. The bad things that we had done knocked him down.
The punishment that he received has brought peace to us.
The wounds that he received have made us well.
We have all turned away, like sheep that take the wrong path.
Each of us has turned to follow our own way.
But the Lord has taken all our sins and put the punishment on him.
People were cruel to him, and he received much pain.
But he did not say anything to complain.
He was like a lamb that people were leading away to kill.
He was like a sheep when they are cutting off its wool, but it makes no noise.
In the same way, he did not say a word.
But it was the Lord who chose to hurt his servant.
He caused his servant to receive much pain.
He died to remove people's guilt.
People thought that he was a sinner
when he took away the sins of many people.
He prayed that God would forgive sinners.’
- Isaiah 53:3-12

God's creation speaks of his poetic and romantic love. His artistic and creative energies - the colours, shapes, the smells, sounds and sights - all celebrate the handiwork of a God who is in the details, takes indescribable attention to shape each part of our world and all the worlds beyond. His beauty is seen equally in the star, the smallest flower, the greatest of creatures, the deepest of valleys and the highest mountain. And when you look closely at the person you love most...
Can you see Him?
Hidden in plain sight!
Jesus Christ is calling you... He, the only Son of God our Father, loves you as the pinnacle of his creation. - Matthew 11:28 - 30
