The Meaning of Communion in the Seventh-day Adventist Faith

A Sacred Time of Remembrance and Renewal

“This do in remembrance of me.” — Luke 22:19

At Acreage SDA Church, Communion is more than a ritual — it is a holy moment to reflect on Christ’s sacrifice, renew our faith, and recommit our lives to Him. Practiced quarterly in Adventist churches, the Communion service invites every believer to examine their heart and receive God’s grace anew.

🍞 What Happens During Communion?

The Seventh-day Adventist Communion service includes:

• Foot washing (Ordinance of Humility) – a symbol of service and forgiveness, modeled after Jesus washing His disciples’ feet

• Unleavened bread and grape juice – representing Christ’s sinless body and shed blood

• Personal reflection and prayer – a time to confess, forgive, and draw close to God

Communion is open to all believers who have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior.

🙏 Why It Matters

Communion is a call to remember:

• Christ’s love displayed on the cross

• Our ongoing need for spiritual renewal

• The unity of believers in the body of Christ

• The promise of Christ’s soon return

Each time we participate, we proclaim, “Jesus died for me… and He’s coming again!”
