| THEME: Eucharist.. |
|
Readings |
| A Reading from the First Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians. The blessing cup that we bless is a communion with the blood of Christ, and the bread which we break is a communion with the body of Christ, The fact that there is only one loaf means that, though there are many of us, we form a single body because we all have a share in the same loaf. This is the Word of the Lord. |

Prayers for the Day |

Opening Prayer: Lord, you gave us the Eucharist as a solemn pledge of your love. By offering our lives in loving service to our brothers and sisters, may we come to joy in your Kingdom We ask this through Christ our Lord. Prayer over the Gifts: Lord, may the bread and cup we offer Bring your Church the unity and peace they signify. We ask this in the name of Jesus the Lord Concluding Prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, you gave us your body and blood in the Eucharist as a sign that even now we share your life. May we come to possess it completely in the Kingdom, where you live for ever and ever. |
