The Church is a community, not one you hand pick, but more like a family you get stuck with. As I served communion this morning and looked into the faces of the congregation it really hit me that this was a reason Jesus wanted the "Kingdom". All gather together. The 95 year old who has been attending the same Church on the corner all her life, the woman with the wayward husband, the dairyfarmer, the corporate worker, the seeking college graduate, the 2 year old with an attitude. All gather at the Lord's Table, all may receive communion, all are equal.
