Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance! (See Jude 1:2)
October 7th is World Communion Sunday! This is a time when people around the world intentionally focus on our unity around God’s table; our unity in Christ. This is the very UNITY that Christ prayed for in John 17, a UNITY that the Spirit ushers us into. Jesus prayed: “… that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. …that they may be one as we are one — in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” (See John 17:20-23, NIV). God’s desire is for follows of Jesus to be united in Jesus; to be one with God and each other. May we celebrate our unity in Christ and strive to be evermore one in God daily!
Prayer of the month: “Jesus, we join you in your prayer for our unity with you and each other. Grow us together as one in you. Give us eyes to see each human being as one created in your image. Fill us to overflowing with your love. In Jesus’ Name~ Amen.”
