I am always challenged that at this most sacred and sensitive time Jesus did not exclude Judas who was plotting to betray him. Luke 22:21-23 (NRSV) 21 ‘…the one who betrays me is with me, and his hand is on the table. 22 For the Son of Man is going as it has been determined, but woe to that one by whom he is betrayed!” 23 Then they began to ask one another, which one of them it could be who would do this.’ I am left wondering who in our churches and communities often feel excluded, and who should we be welcoming at our communion tables?
