Holy Communion : The Eucharist



THE MINISTER AND PEOPLES SHALL SAY:
            Receive O God, this offering of bread and wine and our alms, representing the fruits of your creation as token of our love. Accept also the offering of our lives that we may serve the cause of our kingdom and fulfillment of your will.  Amen.



12.       THE EUCHARIST
(All Stand)

Minister:        The Lord is here.

All:                  His Spirit is with us.

Minister:        Then lift up your hearts.

All:                  We lift them to the Lord.

Minster:         Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.

All:                  It is right to give thanks and praise.

            Minister:        Truly it is right and good to glorify you, at all times and in all places, to offer you our thanksgiving O Lord, Holy Father, Almighty and Everlasting God, through your living word you created all things, and pronounced them good. You made human beings in your own image, to share your life and reflect your glory. When the time had fully come, you gave Christ to us as the life of the World. He accepted baptism and consecration, as your servant to announce the good news to the poor. At the last Supper, Christ gave to us the Eucharist, that we should celebrate the memorial of the cross and resurrection and received His presence as the bread of life therefore, Lord, with the angel and saints, we proclaim and sing your glory.

All:                  Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of power and might heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.


Minister:        We praise you Lord, King of universe, you are holy, and your glory is beyond measure. Upon this Eucharist, send your life-giving spirit. May the out-pouring of this spirit make this meal of bread and wine become for us the body and blood of Christ. May this creator spirit accomplish the words of your beloved Son, who in the night in which he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks to you, broke it and gave it to his disciples saying; Take, eat; This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me. After supper he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them and said; Drink this, all of you: This is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Do this in remembrance of me.

All:                  Your death Lord Jesus we proclaim. Your resurrection we celebrate. Your coming in glory we await.

Minister:        Therefore, Lord, as he has commanded us we do this in remembrance of Him, and we ask you to accept our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. Grant by the power of your Holy Spirit that we who receive your gifts of bread and wine may share in the body and blood of Christ, and grant to people every where the benefits of Christ’s redemptive work.

As we partake of Christ’s body and blood fill us with the Holy Spirit that we may be one single body, and one single spirit in Christ, a living sacrifice to the praise of your glory. We ask this through your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

All:                  Through Christ, with Christ, in Christ, all honour and glory is yours, Almighty God and Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit now and forever. Amen.
