The Eucharist is the centerpiece of our worship, a weekly sacrament that is a sign of God's grace in the world. The imagery of the tree of life for the healing of the nationsin (Revelation 22) called to me. The Eucharist, the Gifts of God for the people of God, feed us and strengthen us to go out into the world to work towards establishing God's kingdom on earth, while we look forward to His kingdom in heaven. As we pray in Eucharistic Prayer C, "Deliver us from the presumption of coming to this Table for solace only, and not for strength; for pardon only, and not for renewal."
