First Communion


Something extraordinary happened this week at the Passover Seder. 

It suddenly stuck me as we sat there that this celebration of Christ's last supper, his Passover Seder, His first communion would be Noah's first communion as well. 
It made it so meaningful, so real for our boy.
We didn't mean to make it a big deal. We just had not yet encouraged him to partake when the rest of the congregation did, wanting to make sure he understood the specialness of his actions.

Oh dear one, if you've never been to a Messianic Passover Seder, I encourage you to make it part of your Holy week next year. I think you will most likely never see Easter, or take communion in the same way again.
