Mark 14:22–26
While they were eating, he took a loaf of bread, and after blessing it he broke it, gave it to them, and said, “Take; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks he gave it to them, and all of them drank from it. He said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many. Truly I tell you, I will never again drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” When they had sung the hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
Reflection
• Do I realize and feel that Jesus’ self-giving is complete, as are bread when it is eaten and wine when it is drunk and that nothing is left?
• Being a Eucharistic people, am I to be taken, blessed, broken and given to others as Jesus was?
