Loyalty and the Last Supper

Churches all around the world will celebrate the sacrament of the Holy Communion this evening. It is the night of the Last Supper. The night when Jesus was so close and clear with his friends. It is also the night that he was captured and they ran away. So much in our world has to do with loyalty. Loyalty to value and purpose. The story of Jesus’ crucifixion is about his loyalty to his calling from God and the response of many of his friends and followers is a story of their struggle with loyalty. I believe the church today needs to reconsider our loyalty. The powerful message of Jesus is a call to loyalty.
