Abstract

This paper examines the impact of celebrating the Lord's Supper weekly on a small church in the Christian and Missionary Alliance. The church has endured years of decline and internal strife.Incorporating data collected from congregational surveys, focus group feedback, and personal interviews, this study demonstrates that having the Lord’s Supper every week for twelve weeks resulted in a measurable improvement in the congregation’s sense of unity, as well as an increased sense of God’s presence in the worship services. It argues that the Christian and Missionary Alliance should seek to rediscover the meaning of the Lord’s Supper and its spiritual impact on the life of a congregation.
