The Lord’s Supper is Remembering

We are forgetful people. No matter what our age, all of us have mo-

ments when our memories fail us. How many times have you met

someone you haven’t seen for a long time, but your mind freezes up

and suddenly, you can’t remember their name? Husbands, have you

ever forgotten your wife’s anniversary or birthday? Wives, ever forgot-

ten your purse or phone at a restaurant back down the road? Young

people, ever forgotten a homework assignment or the answer to a test

questions even though you knew the material?

We all struggle with forgetfulness. Maybe that’s why God

spends so much time encouraging His people to remember. God says

to the people of Israel: “Remember! Remember that you were a slave

in Egypt. Remember all the ways that I, the Lord your God, have led

you! Remember your Creator in the days of your youth! Remember

and obey my commandments! Remember to keep the Sabbath day

holy!”

In Numbers 15, God gave the people of Israel a memory tool.

God made a covenant with them. On his side of the covenant, God

promised continued protection. On their side, they were to obey God’s

loving commands, his tender commands.

God knew their weakness when it came to memory. So He or-

dered Moses to have the people make themselves a memory jogging

tool. Today, let’s spend time remembering the Lord’s Supper.

The bread and cup remind us of Christ’s sacrifice

The disciples shared the supper in the shadow of the cross

Substitution lies at the heart of sin and salvation

Jesus died so we could live

The Lord’s Supper reminds us of Jesus’ love

Jesus showed His love for us by coming to our rescue at the cross

The Lord’s Supper reminds us of Jesus’ future return

We observe the Lord’s Supper in the middle of history, but we do so

with an eye to the end of history and our Lord’s triumphant return. This

is our great hope as Christians: that Jesus who was born in Bethlehem,

Crucified on Calvary and raised from the dead is coming again. The ris-

en Christ with whom we have fellowship here today, is going to return

to earth someday, visibly and in victory.

The Lord’s Supper lifts up our hearts

CLAIRE’S CRUSADERS

Claire Jones will continue collecting donations through the end of this

week for the JDRF. JDRF is a charitable organization focused on

finding a cure for Type 1 Diabetes. This is the 5th year Claire Crusaders

has raised funds for this noble cause. Claire was diagnosed with Type 1

Diabetes in 2011 at the age of 10 years. At press time, Claire is $8,000

shy of her goal of $25,000. Checks can be written to “JDRF” and giv-

en to any of the Jones family members. A collection jar is located

in the church office. Online donations can be made, but you must do a

google search for “JDRF One Walk Claire’s Crusaders”. Claire and her

family want to thank Eastside, once again, for your love and support: the

prayers, encouragement, and donations all continue to give us hope for

a brighter future.

EASTERN EUROPEAN MISSION

We will collect donations for EEM through TODAY. This year EEM plans

to purchase more Bibles for Schools in Ukraine, Romania and Croatia

and Muslim refugees. Please give your donation to one of the Elders.

2017 BUDGET

If you have a ministry that will need funding in 2017, would you please

submit this request to the Elders for discussion about budgeting.

THANK YOU

“Thanks for all the prayers from my Eastside family. The surgery went

well, and my eyesight is improving each day as the healing takes place.

Our God is truly an awesome God!” Love forever, Eli Borden

GRAHAM’S FUTURE

“We believe Graham is unique and the sale of alcohol is a step in the

wrong direction. The key to this election is quite simply getting people

who share our heart and vision for Graham to go to the polls and

VOTE”. Families for Graham’s Future
