The meaning of the second panel flows directly from the one above it. Baptism is the beginning of our life in Christ. As we travel through our earthly journey, our Christian identity is nourished and strengthened by the Lord’s Supper, which is symbolized here on the banner by the chalice, the grapes and the stalks of wheat. These are the ordinary, every-day elements which in the Lord’ Supper become the body and blood of Christ, broken and given for us.
