Why celebrate the Lords Supper so often?
The Lord’s Supper is the central act of Christian worship. It is central because it centers on the Cross which is central in the Gospel. The centrality of the Lord’s Supper has led some congregations to celebrate it as the chief act of worship of the congregation each week. Other congregations celebrate the Lord’s Supper only once or twice a month as the chief service of worship on the Lord’s Day in order to give the congregation opportunity for longer preparation. Most Anglican congregations have an early celebration of the Lord’s Supper or Eucharist every Sunday.
