Communion Practice: We believe that Christ is truly present in Holy Communion and, as we try to be faithful to Christ in the serving of this Sacrament, we ask that everyone be examined and instructed by the Pastor before receiving Holy Communion. All confirmed members of this parish, who have been regularly examined by the Pastor, are welcome to partake of the Holy Eucharist today. We also welcome the members who are in good standing of any of the parishes served by the Bishop, Pastors, and Deacons of The Evangelical Lutheran Diocese of North America (ELDoNA), and who have spoken to the Pastor prior to the service. Members of other Lutheran parishes or other denominations are kindly asked to refrain from communing today. The Pastor would be glad to make an appointment with anyone to discuss our teachings and/or our parish. A Prayer upon Entering Church Almighty, Ever-Living God, grant that I may gladly hear Thy Word and that all my worship may be acceptable unto Thee; through Jesus Christ, my Lord. Amen. A Prayer before Communion Dear Savior, upon Thy gracious invitation I come to Thine Altar. Let me find favor in Thine eyes that I may approach Thy Table in true faith and receive the Sacrament to the salvation of my soul. Amen. A Prayer after Communion O Thou blessed Savior Jesus Christ, Who hast given Thyself to me in this holy Sacrament, keep me in Thy faith and favor; as Thou livest in me, let me The Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Sunday also live in Thee. May Thy holy Body and Blood preserve me in the true faith September 8th, 2019 unto everlasting life. Amen. Sts. Peter & Paul Ev. Luth. Church, U.A.C. A Prayer at the Close of the Service A Parish Affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Diocese of North America Grant, I beseech Thee, Almighty God, that the Word which I have heard this 215 N. Main St., Ste. 1-D day may through Thy grace be so engrafted in my heart that I may bring forth Simpsonville, SC 29681 the fruit of the Spirit; through Jesus Christ, my Lord. Amen.
