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.
The congregation gathers together again on Saturday for a preparatory sermon pointing to Christ’s great love for his people, to warm their hearts and stir them up to consider this love. Rev. Macleod brings us a wonderful sermon about the story of Mary, who anointed Jesus’ head with a costly ointment to prepare him for his death on the cross. How did she know? We can glean many blessings from this wonderful account.
