Thirteen Communion Messages
R. E. Lybrand

What can the busy pastor say that has not already been said before, when the congregation gathers to share the Sacrament of the Altar? What new meanings and insights about this special Meal ought to be imparted before the breaking of the bread and passing of the cup?

R. E. Lybrand, also a busy pastor, has created this useful resource to help you give your congregation thirteen thoughtful snapshots of this always-fresh and sometimes-too-familiar sacrament.

Holy Communion is:
Real Presence
Refreshment
Reconciliation
Reunion
Running No More

There are messages enough in this brief resource for each month in the year. A special concluding message is designed for use on First Communion Sunday.

R. E. Lybrand is pastor of Grace Lutheran Church, Rock Hill, South Carolina. A recent CSS Publishing Company publication by Pastor Lybrand is Home is a Four-Letter Word, Preaching Resources to Strengthen Christian Marriages and Families.
