Communion Alternatives

I could use your input. Maybe someone else can, too.

Got 60 seconds?

A typical communion service focuses on the death/crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

This weekend on Easter Sunday I’m hoping to present it in a way that doesn’t just reflect the cross of Christ but also the Resurrection.

Normally we use a cup of juice and broken bread or crackers. One thought I have is to vary our elements –

• Instead of juice, we’ll use grapes
• Instead of crackers, we’ll use freshly baked bread.

So what do you think of this?

• Is it appropriately creative or too creative?
• Can you think of any other ideas that could also work?

At minimum, I’d appreciate your feedback. At maximum, how can we take appropriate risks in telling the Story of the Resurrection?

Thanks!
