A Prayer for Sunday, July 15, 2012

The Lord’s Day

Today many of us will share in Communion, in the Eucharist, in the Lord’s Supper, whether we worship in a tradition that celebrates it every Sunday or whether we worship in one that celebrates it occasionally and today is one of the occasions.

As we come to the table, O Lord, create in us an attitude of feasting since the Supper is a celebration of the great love you showed in Jesus Christ our Lord, since it is a foretaste of the great banquet that we will one day enjoy together, and since it is a sign of the fellowship with our sisters and brothers in which we participate now.

May our worship of you today be a celebration and a feast, O Lord.

Amen.
