“For I Received From The Lord…” Holy Supper Celebrated in Australia
The Apostles of Jesus Christ were entrusted by Christ to celebrate the Holy Supper: “For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’” —1 Corinthians 11:23-24
On the evening of August 14th in Sydney, Australia, the Holy Supper worship service began in an atmosphere of reverent spirituality and reflection, honoring the solemnity of the commemoration. The presiding pastor reflected on the profound sacrifice and suffering of our Lord Jesus Christ. The moment then arrived to bless the bread and wine, which was done through the Apostolic authority of the Apostle of Jesus Christ Naasón Joaquín García.
This year in Sydney, brethren from the cities in Australia, New Zealand, and choir members from California traveled to Sydney to jointly celebrate the Holy Supper. One purpose of the Holy Supper is to renew the covenant made by each person with God—to strive to be good Christians for God and responsible citizens in society.
The Holy Supper was established by our Lord Jesus Christ as a memorial in remembrance of His redeeming sacrifice. For congregations of The Light of the World, the Holy Supper is the most solemn festivity established by the Lord Jesus Christ more than 2,000 years ago: “And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’” —Luke 22:19
