Christians have a Memorial Day each and every first day of the week. “Do this in remembrance of me” The Lord’s Supper is a memorial that allows us to remember what Jesus did for us on the cross.

His teacher was curious and asked him about it. The child explained that he was drawing the flight to Egypt, when the holy family ...read more
