New City Catechism

Q47. Does the Lord’s Supper add anything to Christ’s atoning work? (1 Peter 3:18)

Answer: No, Christ died once for all. The Lord’s Supper is a covenant meal celebrating Christ’s atoning work; as it is also a means of strengthening our faith as we look to him, and a foretaste of the future feast. But those who take part with unrepentant hearts eat and drink judgment on themselves.

Mark and Patti Bean, Peru
During their recent trip to Peru, Mark and Patti got to help celebrate Bible Day. Hundreds of believers, young and old, marched through town carrying signs, flags, banners and Bibles! Mark was in the program and read Old and New Testament passages in Quechua. Mark and the translation team are checking six sets of proofs of the whole Bible for six groups of Quechua speakers in central Peru. Praise God that Mark has finished reading 84% of the proofs of one of the Bibles.
