Welcome! Jeanne. We warmly welcome you to the inclusive Catholic Community, Mary Mother of Jesus, our church without walls. All are welcome here.
Whoever you are,
Wherever you are,
Just as you are,
You are welcome at this table.
(Integral Christianity by Paul Smith)

Christ around the table—our community
Christ on the table—the elements of bread and wine
Christ at the table—our priest

Oh taste and see, taste and see, the goodness of Christ.
Oh taste and see, taste and see, the goodness of Christ, of Christ.

Christ’s praise shall be always on my lips;
My soul shall glory in Christ,
For Christ has been so good to me. (Refrain)

Mary. 1st Reading is from the Good News according to Luke.
In the course of their meal, having taken and blessed the bread 🥖, Jesus broke it and gave it to them and said,
All: “Take, this is my body.”
Taking the chalice 🍷, Jesus gave it to them, thanking God, and they all drank from it. Jesus said,
All: “This is my blood,
God's new covenant,
Poured out for many people.”
Jack. 2nd Reading is from the Good News according to Mathew.
During the meal, Jesus took and blessed the bread 🥖 broke it, and gave it to the disciples:
All: “Take, eat.
This is my body.”
Taking the cup 🍷 and thanking God, Jesus gave it to them:
All: “Drink this, all of you.
This is my blood,
God's new covenant poured out for many people
for the forgiveness of sins.
Michael. 3rd Reading is from Paul’s letter to the Corinth community.
Let me go over with you again exactly what goes on in the Community Meal and why it is so centrally important. I received my instructions from Jesus himself and passed them on to you. Jesus, on the night of his betrayal, took bread 🥖. Having given thanks, Jesus broke it and said,
All: “This is my body, broken for you.
Do this to remember me.”
After supper, Jesus did the same thing with the cup🍷:
All: “This cup is my blood, my new covenant with you. Each time you drink this cup, remember me.”
Readings from The Message by Eugene H Peterson
