Grace Communion Edmonton
We've been a fellowship in Edmonton since 1964
Word from the Pastor
This week’s theme is God Saves. Specifically that He gives us a way to remember that He saves us. Our Old Testament reading from Exodus contains the instructions from the Lord to Moses on how to prepare and keep the Passover of the LORD, a day set apart as a day of remembrance of God saving Israel while executing judgement on Egypt. The “Pass Over” of the Death Angel that became the Passover Meal, that became the Lord’s Supper that became The Bread and Wine of Communion which points to The Wedding Supper of the Lamb. The more I read on “Passover” and the detailed customs and rituals of this special day, the more I understand the awe that is God saving and having an intimate relationship with creation, and all of us.
See you all this Sunday for worship followed by lunch afterwards.

Word from the Pastor
This week’s theme is "God comes down." In Exodus, God calls Moses at the burning bush to risk himself in love by leading Israel out of oppression. In Romans, Paul describes a community whose genuine love overcomes evil with good even when it is costly. And in Matthew’s gospel, Jesus walks the way of the cross and calls His disciples to follow Him in self-denying, costly love. All the verses in this RCL theme talk about God coming down. And He must; there is no other way we can know Him unless He reveals Himself to us. What a privilege to be able to meet and know your maker!
