Here is a summary of Ellen White's teachings on the Communion service, based on her published books: - The Communion service is not meant to be a time of sorrow or lamenting shortcomings. The preparatory service (self-examination, confession, reconciliation) addresses these matters. When believers gather for Communion, they are to focus on Christ, standing in the light of the cross, and receiving His peace (DA 659.1). - The service points to Christ’s second coming and is designed to keep this hope vivid. Each time believers partake, they remember Christ’s sacrifice and look forward to His return (DA 659.3, 660.1). - The preparatory service is essential. Pride, strife, and variance must be set aside before true fellowship with Christ can be experienced in Communion (DA 650.3). - All believers are called to participate, regardless of the presence of unworthy individuals. Christ meets His people at His appointments, and those who come in faith will be blessed (DA 656.4). - The act of receiving the bread and wine is a spiritual participation in Christ’s sacrifice, reminding believers of the cost of their reconciliation with God (DA 661.1). - Communion with God is vital for Christian life and service. It brings peace, ennobles character, and imparts spiritual power (MH 512.1; GW 510.1). - The Lord’s Supper should not be turned into a social or gluttonous feast, as happened in some early Christian communities (LP 170.2). - The Communion service is a time to experience the love of God and unity with fellow believers, made possible only through Christ’s sacrifice.
