Invitation
Beloved in Christ, the Gospel tells us that on the first day of the week
Jesus Christ was raised from death
and encountered two disciples on the road.
They recognized him at table, in the breaking of the bread.
This is the joyful feast of the people of God.
All God’s beloved, diverse and beautiful,
come from east and west, north and south,
and gather about Christ’s table:
One table, yet many tables.
Sanctus reprise
Communion Procession Communion elements are brought to the people
We come in your name, O Holy One,
hungry, humble, hopeful.
Let us know your presence in community around these tables.
Friends, we invite you to stay seated,
but look around and find the bread and cup nearest you.
The servers who have brought the communion elements to you
may call on you to help break the bread or lift the cup.
May God be with you.
