Communion
For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said,
Take, eat: this is my body, whch is broken for you: this do in remembrance fo me.
I Corinthians 11:23-24
The preparation of communion is the most rewarding duty delegated to the mother ministry. As often as the mother ministry prepare communion, it is done in remembrance of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for all he has done for us.
