The Lord's Supper

This is one of the panels in the West Transept window. All three windows show the “Word and Sacraments”. This window depicts Jesus at the house of the two disciples He walked with on the road to Emmaus the evening of His resurrection day. Jesus was recognized in the breaking of the bread. The window reminds those who worship of the Lord’s Supper which is also called the Breaking of the bread. If you see a symbol in the sanctuary you’d like to know more about e-mail Pastor John or drop him a note.

Sword

This symbol is hidden away in the Pastor’s Sacristy; the small room on the pulpit side where the Pastor’s prepare for the service. The most important the Pastor uses is represented by the Sword. Paul writes in Ephesians 6:17, “In all circumstance take up… the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.” The only offensive weapon the Christian has with which to fight the forces of evil and deception is God’s Word written for us in the Bible. Keep the sword God gave you sharp. Listen carefully and study diligently. If you see a symbol in the sanctuary you’d like to know more about e-mail Pastor John or drop him a note.
