World Communion Sunday

Posted September 28th, 2009 by admin

World Communion Sunday – celebrated the first Sunday in October – is one of the most venerable of “special Sundays.” The day has taken on new relevancy and depth of meaning in a world where globalization often has undermined peace and justice – and in a time when fear divides the peoples of God’s earth. On this day we celebrate our oneness in Christ, the Prince of Peace, in the midst of the world we are called to serve – a world ever more in need of peacemaking.

All children are welcome to join the congregation for World Communion Sunday, October 4, if your family is comfortable with their participation. We will keep children in the Wendell House if you prefer your child does not participate. Please let us know ahead of time if possible. When children return to the sanctuary it has been easiest if they sit with their class in the back of the sanctuary.
