AGAPE SERVICE

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
Wellington Heath: Christ Church
Address
Church Lane Wellington Heath, HR8 1NA, United Kingdom

An Agape service is a 'Love Feast'. A simple service during which food and drink is shared. The word, “agape,” is the Greek word used in the New Testament for the highest and broadest kind of self-giving Love, the kind of Love that is our source, our true life in this life and our eternal reality. We have no word capable of describing the God who is Love in any language, but agape calls attention to the limitless and overflowing fullness of Divine Love—Love Incarnate, who suffered death on a cross.
