Sunday Morning Starters

The Purpose of Memorials…

2. Memorials honor great lives.

3. Memorials commemorate great deeds.

4. Memorials inspire.

The Purpose of the Lord’s Supper

1. Stir in our hearts the memory of our Christ!

“…in remembrance of me…” (1 Corinthians 11:24-25)

2. Honor the great life of our King!

“…this man has done nothing wrong.” (Luke 23:41)

3. Celebrate the great sacrifice of our Savior!

“While we were still sinners, Christ died for the ungodly.” (Romans 5:8)

4. Inspire us to greater devotion, service and sacrifice to our Lord!

“…present your bodies a living sacrifice…” (Romans 12:1)

Our Prayer: Father, stir in our hearts the memory of the great life, death, burial and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Inspire us to greater devotion, service and sacrifice as we reaffirm our covenant with You through Your Son and our Savior, Jesus Christ. In Christ’s name we pray. Amen.
