Note: "The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life," Jesus says. How can we do anything but give our absolute total attention to every word from our Savior?

GREETING
Leader 1: Jesus said, "Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them."
Leader 2: Because he said this, many of his disciples turned back and no longer went about with him.
Leader 1: "Do you wish to go away also?" Jesus asks.
Congregation: Lord, to whom can we go? You have the words of eternal life.
Leader 2: "It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh is useless," Jesus said.
Leader 1: And he told his disciples, "The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life."
Congregation: We have come to believe and know that you are the Holy One of God.

God who sends life, Jesus' teachi…
