Day 104. How are the Church on earth and the Church in heaven joined in worship? (2024)

Today is day 104 and we are on the Third Article of the Apostles' Creed. Today we are on the fifteenth line: “The Communion of Saints”.

104. How are the Church on earth and the Church in heaven joined in worship?

Through union with Christ, as celebrated in the sacrament of Holy Communion, the Church on earth participates with the Church in heaven in the eternal worship of God. (Exodus 24:9–11; Psalm 148; 1 Corinthians 10:16–17; Hebrews 12:18–29; Revelation 19:1–9)

We will conclude today with Prayer 106. For Spiritual Communion found on page 677 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
