We partake of the elements together as he directs. *HYMN OF PRAISE Trinity Hymnal, No. 296 “All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name” Stanzas 1,4,5,6 *BENEDICTION “The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” NIVO Nu. 6:24-26 |
