Holy Communion

Each month we celebrate the Sacrament of Holy Communion using a traditional liturgy. To celebrate the Unity in Diversity that is our Community Church, we vary the liturgy from time to time using the same form, but adding elements of various denominations. It is the belief of this congregation that none should be excluded from Christ's table, so all who so desire are invited to participate in the Sacrament. To insure that none are excluded from Christ's Table, we offer alcohol free wine and gluten free wafers.

Baptism

A person is incorporated into the Universal Church, the Body of Christ, through the sacrament of Baptism. The water, words, and actions of the sacrament are visible signs that convey the Christian's new birth in Christ; it is both God's gift and our human response to that gift as well as a sign and seal of our common discipleship. 

At the Community Church of the Verdes we baptize both children and adults, and recognize that Baptism with water and the Holy Spirit is the mark of that person's acceptance into the care of Christ's church, the sign and seal of their participation in God's forgiveness, and the beginning of their new growth into full Christian faith and life.
