The Communion Season is a deeply spiritual practice started by the Covenanters in Scotland during the seventeenth century, centered around the careful administration of the Lord’s Supper. Communion Season takes place from Thursday to the following Monday. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, preparatory services are held, with preaching on themes of repentance, self-examination, and spiritual renewal, leading up to the administration of the Lord’s Supper on the Lord’s Day morning. Please come with us to hear Rev. William Macleod as he introduces this tradition and delivers seven sermons like those typically preached during a traditional Scottish Communion Season.
Friday’s sermon reminds the congregation about Paul’s warning against coming to the Lord’s Table in a wrong way. Rev. Macleod teaches us who should come to the Lord’s Table, and who should not. In this sermon, we learn what is required to partake of Communion in a right way, and how we can know if we are able. He shows us the marks of grace to look for in ourselves—marks which evidence whether we are in Christ.
