Thursday
A
towel…A basin…A simple act of humility…
This
is my body…This is my blood…Do this in memory of me.
The
last supper…The first Mass.
O
God, we ask that you grant us every grace to more fully
participate in the Mass. Help us to
understand and appreciate
the great gift that Christ gave us in the Eucharist.
We
ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with
you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Friday
The
cross…The barren altar…
There
is your mother…Father, forgive them…It is finished…
The
broken body…The spilled blood…The wood of the cross.
God
our Father, we ask that you grant us every healing that we need to
be a better imitator of Christ. As He
took our sins upon His body to
the cross, let us carry our small crosses as best we can knowing
how much more He carried.
We
ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with
you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Saturday
A
single flame…a candlelit church…the Exsultet…
An
earthquake…The empty tomb…An angel of the Lord…
He
is risen…He is truly risen.
Baptisms…Confirmations…First
Eucharists…New Life in the Church.
For
40 days we have fasted and our fast is finally over.
We
can once again say…
We
are an Easter People and Alleluia is our song. (3X)
O
God, we ask that you grant us every blessing that we need to be like
these new members of your Church. Help
us to see what they see in
your Church and bring us to new life with them.
We
ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with
you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
