      On the occasion of

      Date

      Beloved Child of God,

      We gather at this table

      with family, strangers, friends, and neighbors,

      with prayer, Sacred Stories, songs, peace, and our gifts,

      with joy, doubt, questions, wonder—

      all of ourselves.

      We gather to share this bread and wine.

      We bless this bread

      as Jesus did, spending one last night with friends—

      eating, teaching, celebrating, remembering.

      We break this bread

      to remember

      God with us, seen and unseen:

      Creator creating and loving,

      Jesus holding, healing,

      praying, proclaiming, defying,

      Holy Spirit dancing

      in our midst.

      We eat this bread

      to hope for a holy moment of

      harmony and unity

      in the brokenness of our humanity.

      We drink this wine

      to share the Sacred Story,

      to embrace holy mystery

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
