PRAYERS
Lord God, we see your love in Jesus your Son; help us to hear his teaching, believe his word & find fulness of loveso that we can bring joy to everyone we meet. Amen

We continue to pray for the world

REFLECTION
After the events of the Easter weekend, did the first disciples share bread & wine together? Did they remember those conversations - arguments, maybe - with Jesus, about him being the bread of life? Did they understand?

What does it mean to "feed on Christ"?
We'll have to stretch our imaginations, & our faith, if we're to comprehend

Feast on him. the Living Bread. 
Jesus is our everyday supply. He is our sustenance and joy

Our Father in heaven ...
Give us this day our daily bread ...
For yours is the kingdom
the power and the glory
For ever and ever. Amen
