Election Day Communion

On November 6, 2012, Election Day,
we will exercise our right to choose.
Some of us will choose to vote for Barack Obama.
Some of us will choose to vote for Mitt Romney.
Some of us will choose to vote for another candidate.
Some of us will choose not to vote.

During the day of November 6, 2012, we will make different choices for different reasons, hoping for different results.

But that evening while our nation turns its attention to the outcome of the presidential election, let’s again choose differently. But this time, let’s do it together.

First Presbyterian Church of Hudson, WI invites the whole community to a service of Word and Table to remember what unites us instead of what divides us. Our God and our faith are bigger and stronger than politics.

Let’s meet at the same table,
with the same host,
to remember the same things.

We’ll remember that, through the Holy Spirit, this power dwells within otherwise ordinary people who as one body, regardless of denomination, or tradition, or intricacies of theology, continue the mission of Jesus: preaching good news to the poor, freeing the captives, giving sight to the blind, releasing the oppressed, and proclaiming the year of the Lord’s favor (Luke 4:16-21).
