PRAYER
Almighty Father, whose dear Son, on the night before he suffered, instituted the Lord’s Supper of his Body and Blood: Mercifully grant that we may receive it thankfully in remembrance of Jesus Christ our Lord, who in his sacrificial love gives us a pledge of eternal life; and who now lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
