Today I will learn that: In the Eucharist we remember and celebrate what Jesus said and did at the Last supper.
Jesus Thank you for giving yourself to us. • What is a special event that you remember? • Why does remembering them make you happy?
In the Last Supper Jesus told his disciples to remember what? • To remember all that he has done. • He wanted them to celebrate this meal how many times?
Jesus said, • “Do this in memory of me.” (Luke 22:19)
How does the Church continue to celebrate and remember what Jesus did at the Last Supper? • When we celebrate the Eucharist.
The Eucharist • Is the sacrament of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. • The bread becomes • The Body of Christ • The wine becomes • The Blood of Christ
How? • This is done by the power of the Holy Spirit. • Through the words and actions of the priest.
The Word Eucharist means… • To give thanks.
To celebrate the Eucharist • We thank God for all the gifts and blessings he has given us. • We praise Jesus for all he has done for us. • We ask the Holy Spirit to help us grow closer to God.
