The Communion
Deacon: Break, Master, the Holy Bread.
Priest: Broken and distributed is the Lamb of God: Who is broken, yet not divided; who is eaten, yet never consumed; but sanctifies those who partake thereof.
Deacon: Fill, Master, the Holy Cup.
Priest: + The fullness [of the cup of faith] of the Holy Spirit.
Deacon: Amen. Bless, Master, the warm water.
Priest: + Blessed is the warmth of Your saints always, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Deacon: The warmth [of faith, full] of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Priest: Deacon, draw near.
Deacon: Behold, I draw near to our immortal King and God. Master, give me, the unworthy Deacon ______, the precious and most holy Body of our Lord and God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Priest: To the Deacon ______ is given the precious, holy, and most pure Body of our Lord and God and Savior, Jesus Christ, for the remission of his sins, and unto eternal life.
Priest: The precious and most holy Body of our Lord and God and Savior, Jesus Christ, is given to me, the unworthy Priest ______ for the remission of my sins, and for eternal life.
Priest:Let us pray together:
All: I believe, O Lord, and I confess that You are truly the Christ, the Son of the living God, Who came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am first. I believe also that This is truly Your own most pure Body, and that This is truly Your own precious Blood. Therefore, I pray to you have mercy upon me and forgive my transgressions, both voluntary and involuntary, of word and of deed, committed in knowledge or in ignorance. And make me worthy to partake without condemnation of Your most pure Mysteries, for the remission of my sins, and unto life everlasting. Amen.
Of Your mystical supper, O Son of God, accept me today as a communicant; for I will not speak of Your mystery to Your enemies, neither like Judas will I give You a kiss; but like the thief will I confess You: remember me, O Lord, in Your kingdom.
May the communion of Your holy Mysteries be neither to my judgment, nor to my condemnation, O Lord, but to the healing of soul and body.
Priest: The precious and most holy Blood of our Lord and God and Savior, Jesus Christ, is given to me, the unworthy Priest ______ for the remission of my sins, and for eternal life. Amen.
