Lamb of God means
Lectio Divina: which part speaks to you and why?
The main focus of this lesson is the Prayer
Lamb of God
The Holy Communion
The Prayer after the Communion
The Communion rite (Continued)
The lamb of God part of the Mass is about the
giving and receiving of
the Holy Communion and the Prayer after the Communion
The priest invites people to come to Communion. He lifts up the sacred
host and says:
Behold the Lamb of God,
behold him who takes away the sins of the world. Blessed are those called
to the supper of the Lamb.
The people respond:
Lord, I am not worthy
that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word
and my soul shall be healed.
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE THIS COMES FROM?
Lamb of God
John 1: 29
(NRSV)
The next day John saw Jesus
coming toward him and said,
"Look, the Lamb of God,
who takes away the sin of
the world!
‘Lamb of God’
Luke 7: 6
(NRSV)
So Jesus went with them. He
was not far from the house
when the centurion sent
friends to say to him:
"Lord, don't trouble yourself,
for I do not deserve to have
you come under my roof.”
The Supper of the
Lamb
After the Lamb of God, The Priest then receives the
Body and Blood of Christ.
It is then given to the Extraordinary Ministers of the
Holy Communion.
The Body and blood of Christ
The people process to the altar to receive Holy
Communion or a blessing. The priest or the
Extraordinary Ministers raise the host to each person
saying, ‘The Body of Christ’.
Each person replies ‘Amen’(which means ‘I agree’) and
receives the host. Then sometimes the people receive
the chalice and the priest or Extraordinary Minister
says, ‘The Blood of Christ’ and each person replies
‘Amen’ and drinks from the chalice.
The body and blood of Christ
The priest invites the people to pray
that, having received Jesus in Holy
Communion, they will have the
strength to live in communion that is to
‘give and take’ every day.
Prayer after Communion
Who said in John’s Gospel;
‘Behold the Lamb of God’
and when?
What is the
supper of the Lamb
?
Of what might people want to be healed?
What does the priest say when the raises the Host and the chalice?
How do you think people can live in
communion
with one another?
The Communion Rite
How does
this link to
Holy
Communion?
Communion means
“together”.
Just as the shepherd went
after the one sheep, even
though all the others were
safe, so the parish looks
after each and every one
of its parishioners, just as
God looks after each and
every one of His children.
In your book, you now need to write about
The Lamb of God and where it comes from
Body and Blood of Christ
The Prayer after Communion – link to the Lost
Sheep Parable
