Why we celebrate Passover every year and not every mass like the Catholic

When should the Memorial be observed?

The answer becomes clear when we remember that Jesus chose a particular date to institute this celebration—the Passover. God’s people had annually been observing that date, Nisan 14 on their calendar, for over 1,500 years in order to commemorate a remarkable salvation that Jehovah performed for his people. Clearly,Jesus was directing his followers to use the same date to commemorate the far greater act of salvation that God would make possible through the death of Christ. Jesus’ true followers thus attend the Lord’s Evening Meal every year on the date corresponding to Nisan 14 on the Hebrew calendar.

The purpose?

The Purpose of the Lord’s Evening Meal

Jesus concluded the first observance of the Lord’s Evening Meal with these words: “Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” (Luke 22:19) The observance does indeed help us to remember Jesus and the wonderful things accomplished by his death. It reminds us that Jesus upheld the sovereignty of his Father, Jehovah. It also reminds us that by means of his death as a perfect, sinless human, Jesus gave “his soul a ransom in exchange for many.” The ransom makes it possible for any who would exercise faith in his sacrifice to be freed from sin and to attain to everlasting life.—Matthew 20:28.


The ceremony is also called the Lord’s Supper, the breaking of the bread, the Eucharistic assembly, the Holy Sacrifice, the Holy and Divine Liturgy, Communion, and Holy Mass. The word “Eucharist” is derived from the Greek eu·kha·ri·sti´a, which means gratitude, thankfulness, or thanksgiving.

Depressed?

Have you shown yourself discouraged in times of distress?
Your power will be scanty.

Satan promotes a lie that we are worhtless in God's eyes.If we are thrown down and becomes convinced that God does not care about us,we might be tempted to give up.

That is what the great Deceiver wants!

How , then can we guard against being deceived by this satanic lie?
Personally take to heart what the Bible says about God's Love for us.

God's words uses some word pictures to assures us that He notices us and loves us as individuals.

" He put our tears in his "skin bottle" meaning he sees and remembers the tears in our struggle to remain faithful."

"He knows when we are "broken at heart".

"He know even the numbers of "the very hairs of our head".

Above all,GOD GAVE US HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON in our behalf...
