The Lord’s Supper

Our Savior knows our spiritual needs and tells us to partake of the Lord’s Supper often. A Christian will want to come to the sacrament often to strengthen faith through the assurance of God’s forgiveness, which is offered to us in the Lord’s Supper.

We celebrate the Lord’s Supper on the first and third Sundays of each month. We also serve the Lord’s Supper on Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday and New Year’s Eve. Prompted by a loving concern for the faith of others, we ask that only members of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) and the Evangelical Lutheran Synod (ELS) join us in the sacrament. If you have friends or relatives (WELS or ELS) worshipping with you on a communion Sunday, please ask them to identify themselves to the pastor prior to the service.

By this action, we are not judging anyone’s faith. Our primary concern is not to judge nor to exclude people from the sacrament. We want to ensure, as far as possible, that those who receive the sacrament are truly worthy guests, so that they will not take it to their judgment. We also want the celebration of the Lord’s Supper to be an expression of the true and substantial oneness of faith in Jesus Christ.

If you have friends or relatives of a different faith worshipping with you on a communion Sunday, please inform them of our Closed Communion practices. If they have questions, encourage them to speak to the pastor, who will be happy to discuss it.

Private communion for those who are shut-ins and unable to attend church is offered on a regular basis. When an individual is hospitalized or seriously ill and desires the Lord’s Supper, the pastor will serve private communion. Contact the pastor to make arrangements.

Our Liturgy

  • Every service begins “In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” These are the same words spoken at your baptism. They are a reminder that we enter God’s presence to worship Him because we were made His children through baptism.

  • In every service, we humbly confess our sins to God and then gladly hear his proclamation that each and every one of them has been forgiven. It’s included in every service because we can never hear those amazing, comforting words too often.

  • In response to the forgiveness given so freely to us, we join our voices in a song of praise to God.

  • We pray the appointed prayer for that Sunday of the church year. The prayer fits with the theme for the day.

  • The first lesson is usually taken from the Old Testament. Many times, we will hear about a prophecy that was fulfilled by Christ in the Gospel lesson for the day.

  • For 3,000 years, believers have worshipped God by singing and reciting psalms.

  • The second lesson usually is taken from the Epistles—the part of the New Testament after the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Typically, they apply God’s Word specifically to the believer’s life.

  • A short song of praise to God, based on the theme of the day, that gives thanks God for and prepares us to hear the Gospel lesson.

  • The entire service revolves around the Gospel lesson. We stand to hear the words of Christ our King, just like people stood in the presence of royalty in ancient times.

  • The pastor preaches a message based on one of the lessons or the gospel for the day. The sermon teaches how God's word applies to our Christian life.

  • We join to pray to God about specific joys and troubles in our church and in the Church around the world. This is followed by the Lord’s Prayer.

  • The Lord’s Supper is offered on the first and third Sundays of the month. We, united with our brothers and sisters in the faith, approach God’s altar to receive the body and blood of Christ for the forgiveness of our sins and the strengthening of our faith.

  • We then receive the same blessing that God gave to the ancient Israelites.
