“For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you,
that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took a loaf of bread,
and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said,
‘This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.’”
– 1 Corinthians 11:23-24, NRSVue
Activity
In the traditional Brethren communion service, which is a central part of the love feast usually held on Thursday night before Easter Sunday, participants break home-made unleavened bread after sharing a meal in memory of the last supper Jesus ate with his disciples.
If you have bread or a tortilla or crackers or another baked good at home, this evening break off a small piece and eat it. As you savor the taste, remember Jesus’ life and ministry.
