| When & Where: On the Lord’s Day at the Penn Ave. Meeting Hall, 1st Floor. We meet at 10:00 am for the Jubilee... praising the Lord! Then at 11:30 am we continue on to the ministry of the Word. We have our Lord's table in the homes, partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ in smaller groups. The exception is the first Lord’s Day of the month when all of the three fellowship groups meet together. |
 |
| We gather together in the homes to remember the Lord at His table. The bread and the cup remind us of the Lord’s wonderful Person and His glorious work. By partaking of these symbols we declare His death, which redeemed us. We also look forward to His coming Kingdom. After the table we read the Word of God and speak to one another the words of admonition and exhortation. In this way we feed one another, strengthen one another, encourage one another, console one another, and build up one another. At the Lord’s table, Christ, Himself is displayed in symbols. The symbols usher us into the reality of eating and drinking the Lord as the Spirit. Christ is also the content of the living Word. By speaking to one another in spirit, we minister to one another the Christ we experience and enjoy. |

Lord's table Testimonies |
| "The Lord’s table always helps refocus me every week. It is both a praise to the Lord of what I gained of Him last week, and an encouragement to gain Him the next week. The Jubilee is enlightening and feeding when many brothers and sisters speak what they have enjoyed. It also motivates me to labor in the Word of God daily, so I also will have something edifying to speak to the church." |
