Four. So in one country, there are four times at the same time—Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific. How many time zones in Holy Communion? Four. There is the ancient past (“In the night he was betrayed…”). There is the even more distant ancient past (the Last Supper recalls the night of the first Passover). There is the present moment, when I meet Jesus, person to person, heart to heart and hear “This is my body, my blood, for your forgiveness). And there is the future, for this meal is the “foretaste of the feast to come.” On this World Communion Sunday, I give thanks for those who have been, for those who are, and for those who will be living definitions of what faith in Christ looks like.
