An authentic Hebrew first-century communion service was led this afternoon by Dr. Randy Smith, who lived and studied in Israel for many years. After experiencing various Hebrew customs of ritual cleansing, blessing, and more, participants ate the Love Feast in a manner typical of what Jesus and his disciples experienced in the Upper Room.
A footwashing service followed, as taught in the Gospel of John, and then participants took a silent prayer-walk across the scenic Kenyon College campus to experience the final portion–the bread and the cup–in the architecturally-distinctive Gothic Holy Spirit Chapel.
The DRIVEN06 conference concludes Sunday morning with Kary Oberbrunner as the speaker for the closing session.
