“For even Christ our Passover Lamb is sacrificed for us” 1 Cor 5:7
On Wednesday we spent the evening blowing the dust off the ancient, but deeply relevant Jewish fest of Passover. We ate, drank, learned, and explored this holiday that even Jesus celebrated and claimed to be the fulfillment of. It is a story of God’s abounding love to generations, grace, and redemption…which leads to JOY!
Vic & Darla D. lead us through the ceremony and highlighted the prophetic fulfillments. They did such a great job! We set the room up “Hebrew” style with one long low table where everyone sat on carpets or pillows to enjoy the festivities. Aside from opening us up to the beautiful imagery of the Passover, this was a chance to really enjoy one another as a church fellowship and serve one another. Personally for me it is just such a blessing to watch the Body serve one another, each person doing their part - hosting, teaching, feeding, crowd (kid) controlling, worship leading, cooking...whatever to edify one another.
