For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes. (1 Corinthians 11:23-26).
Peter said to Him, “You shall never wash my feet!”
Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.” (John 13:8).
On the night of March 22, while I was in prayer, I felt the scene of a dinner was revealed to me, that is how when you see a photograph and cut out a person, you saw the edge of the cutout and that hole there, as an absent person, an empty place, and the seated person was zoomed in next to the absent person and that image came towards me, I do not remember his face and seemed to be Christ, it was the Lord's Supper, however, it was not the traditional representation of the Supper of the Lord, it was a dinner with several people I do not know the apostles in person and the face of Christ I have never seen, but I did know it was him! I have still always seen him in prayer walking and from the waist down, in short the dinner was shown, the empty place and Christ was accentuated and that someone was missing there.
And these weeks I have been thinking about it and remembering when my dad Luis left that church, around 1984, if I remember correctly; I was a witness in the living room of my house when he tried to make them understand the Gospel of Peace of our Lord Jesus Christ and they seemed not to understand at that time, and my family left the work in the missions, which consisted of preaching in those small churches in In the poorer neighborhoods, the whole family participated except my younger brother for being naughty and another brother taking care of him.
My parents read and meditated on the word of God, they prayed together, always fearful of God they followed from home, the verbatim as much as they can for a lifetime and every year is the Lord's Supper in their home.
On the day of the Lord's Supper, we only attended those who were born from the heart and it was possible, and we were all arranged as a formal dinner as we could, with our children when they were little who sometimes laughed with their innocent giggles, when my brother Carlos used to speak the first languages with a pa pa pa, and I with a short shh! Be quiet, everyone participating in prayer, preaching and praise, everyone in a beautiful family gathering.
The family could participate in the service but only the baptized could eat the body and blood of the Lord, it was done on the 14th of Nissan of each year, my parents fasted from the afternoon of the previous day, we preferred to take our precautions not to do something wrong, we cannot judge, says the word of God,
Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
Therefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another. (1 Corinthians 11:27-33).
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, for the forgiveness of sins and repent before our high priest our Lord Jesus Christ, as his word says,
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:16).
My parents struggled to prepare the unleavened bread and the juice of the unfermented grape, Mommy bought some beautiful flowers for the table arrangement, her dishes and glasses only for the sacrament of each year, new tablecloths for this wonderful service in memory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” (Luke 22:19).
Every year the Lord's Supper is made in his home precisely in the dining room and my daddy Luis who sleeps in the Lord led the dinner, we always started as in the church services, with beautiful praises for God and we praised those hymnals, the Praise "When you roll over there", "Holy! Holy! Holy!" and many more ... all singing in unison! Regardless of the out of tune, but with much love for God and Jesus Christ! My mom with such a beautiful voice and I as a good daughter sang those notes in all highs and highs, which I do not doubt reached heaven! And they keep reaching up to heaven! Glory to God! Glory to Jesus Christ! Hallelujah! Amen Amen Amen.
We love you Jesus Christ and we want to remain in you, thanks for your word that gives us hope.
And every written word was made, Jesus said:
Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.” (John 6:53-58).
It is beautiful to participate in the Lord's Supper in the communion of your home with your family, because I like it that way because it is where the family is reunited and the good seed that lasts for generations remains, I give you my testimony.
Says the word of God,
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”
Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom.” (Matthew 26:26-29).
And after dinner we proceeded as the word says to wash each other's feet, I remember how my sister used to say I wash Mommy's and I wash hers and my mommy mine, we reached an agreement, my older brother dad and my dad my older brother.
Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end. (John 13:1).
Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God, rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself. After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded. Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, “Lord, are You washing my feet?”
Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will know after this.”
Peter said to Him, “You shall never wash my feet!”
Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.”
Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”
Jesus said to him, “He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you.” For He knew who would betray Him; therefore He said, “You are not all clean.”
So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you? You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him. If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. (John 13:3-17).

And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst. But I said to you that you have seen Me and yet do not believe. All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.” (John 6:35-40).
