June 9, 2024 // Faith Exploration for Everyone: Symbols and Sacraments? The Meaning of Baptism and Communion
Manage episode 423052993 series 2291623
The Mennonite tradition claims two rituals as central to our practice: baptism and communion. While other denominations claim these (and others) as sacramental--the essential means by which God’s grace is given--we hold them as “merely” symbols--pointing to the more significant transformation in progress beyond these practices. Does that make them less valuable, and if so, why bother? These and other rituals are markers that remind us that the whole journey is sacred and we all belong as part of God’s shalom.
Our service began with a video clip "Super Hero Identity" (https://www.instagram.com/p/C66o4jCrJEh/) followed by these words from Joe.
