Breaking Bread Print this page E-mail this page

Romanian

"Breaking bread" was a term used by the early church to refer to the gathering together of believers to share a meal as well as to remember the Lord by taking communion. Over the centuries these two events have been culturally separated, but nonetheless, both are very important.

Jesus said to take communion "as often as you will" (1 Corinthians 11:23-26). We have chosen to celebrate communion as a church famliy on the first Sunday Service of each month

Who is allowed to take communion? Since the purpose is to remember what Christ's death has done for us, it seems anyone who has a sincere faith in Jesus Christ may partake (2 Corinthians 11: 24-26). However, we are warned by Paul not to take communion in an "unworthy manner." This refers to people who participate in communion as a ritual but who live a life that contradicts the beliefs represented by communion.
