THESACRAMENTOFHOLYCOMMUNION

The Lord be with you.

Andalsowithyou.

Lift up your hearts.

WeliftthemuptotheLord.

Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. Itisrighttogiveourthanksandpraise.

...And so with you people on earth and all the company of heaven we praise your name and join their unending hymn:

Holy,holy,holy,Lord,Godofpowerandmight,heavenandearthare fullofyourglory.Hosannainthehighest.Blessedishewhocomesin thenameoftheLord.Hosannainthehighest.

Holy are you, God of every day, and blessed is Jesus Christ...

On the night in which he gave himself up for us, he took bread, gave thanks to you, broke the bread, gave it to his disciples, and said:

“Take,eat,thisismybodywhichisgivenforyou.Dothisforthe remembranceofme.”

When the supper was over, he took the cup, gave thanks to you, gave it to his disciples, and said:

“Drinkthis,allofyou;thisismybloodofthenewcovenantpouredout foryouandformanyfortheforgivenessofsins.Dothis,asoftenasyou drinkit,inremembranceofme.”

...And so in remembrance of these your mighty acts in Jesus Christ, we offer ourselves in praise and thanksgiving as a holy and living sacrifice, in union with Christ’s offering for us, as we proclaim the mystery of faith:

Christhasdied;Christisrisen;Christwillcomeagain.

It is here at this table, resurrecting God, that we are fed by your love... ...Through your son Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit in your holy church, all honor is yours, almighty God, now and forever, Amen.
