Connection with the Larger Church 1 Corinthians 10: 16-17
On World Communion Sunday, Christians remember that they are a part of the one body of Christ. Whether they share communion in a cathedral or the countryside, this Sunday celebrates our diversity as well as our common bonds.
In our loneliness, we often retreat from church and community. We are called, as believers, to prioritize the time for worship and small groups, to encourage each other in the faith.
Jesus was connection to the Creator and all his relationships were built on this relationship. The prayer is that the same is true for us, that our relationships are built on our God-relationship. Staying connected to God helps us have more loving relationships with others and bear fruit.
