WORLD WIDE COMMUNION SUNDAY
This Sunday Chris"ans all over the world will celebrate the sacrament of
the Lord’s Supper. Some Chris"ans gather in homes or huts, while others enter
into white frame churches or more rus"c buildings, while others worship in
contemporary suburban se)ngs, and yet others will praise God in historic
cathedrals.
The elements of bread and juice, represen"ng the body and blood of
Christ, will be blessed and received in Catholic and Protestant churches, different
denomina"ons around the world. It is indeed a holy "me.
Chaplains on college campuses, hospitals, military bases, ships, and
loca"ons where our men and women serve will offer the sacraments.
During Worldwide Communion Sunday the Scripture will be read in
different countries in various languages yet we are all One body, the body of
Jesus Christ. We are One Church, Christ’s Church. One Lord, One bap"sm, One
faith!
Please join us this Sunday as we gather around the Lord’s table for the
Lord’s Supper! May God bless you and keep you!
Yours in Christ,
Steve

1st Kids FALL FESTIVAL and TRUNK OR TREAT
October 27th 5:30-7pm
Lots of fun and treats!!!
And the Children shall come and
Pray... Last week brought one of the most
powerful mornings of the year to our city,
county, and country’s schools. Last
Wednesday was See You At The Pole where
schools across the na"on welcomed students
early to share in a "me of worship and
prayer. This annual event started in 1989
when 10 students in Burleson Texas
decided aDer a Discipleship Weekend to
bring prayer back to school. That night
they traveled to 3 schools and prayed
around the flagpoles. They started a
movement and by the next year, about
45,000 students gathered the morning of
See You at the Pole. This past
Wednesday, it was es"mated that over
1.5 million students combined in prayer
for their schools, leaders, country,
friends, and personal concerns.
Sco;sboro City Schools showed
up to honor God in record
numbers. Lora Hass led devo"on on
How to Pray at Caldwell where the
prayer circle around the flagpole
included over 80 students and faculty.
Dr. Amy and Jason Hass welcomed
another 60+ students at Collins
Elementary School. I shared with the
SJHS along with Mike Roney leading
worship with another 60 young
believers. Meanwhile, the FCA led by Ryan Jones
liDed praise and prayers with 50+ students at SHS. It
was a blessed morning and a great honor for so many
FUMC members to lead worship, prayer, and
devo"on.
2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, who are
called by my name, will humble themselves and pray
and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways,
then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their
sin and will heal their land.” This was the theme
scripture for SYaTP this year. It is a blueprint to
having the presence, forgiveness, and healing of
God...be humble, seek God, and turn from sin. It is simple but not always easy but it is
God’s command with God’s promise. Be like these students; show up, pray with passion,
and know God will reveal himself in fabulous glory!
Blessings, Hardin
