PRAYER AND REFLECTION The Body and Blood of Christ June 7, 2015 Read: Mark 14:12-16, Our faith is rooted in the ancient Jewish revelation that God entered into a deep covenant relationship with Israel. As God s covenant with Israel was ratified by the blood of animals, God s new covenant with us has been ratified by the blood of Christ. We remember and celebrate that covenant every time we participate in the Eucharist, where Christ s body and blood are made present to us and for us again and again in the bread and wine. It is that profound sign of a love relationship that we celebrate today. Christ gives himself for us and calls us to give ourselves for one another. As a people bound in a deep covenant relationship with God, we express our gratitude by praying for one another, for our neighbors and for the whole world. For the church; that we may remember our covenant with God, sealed in Christ s blood we pray, For our Jewish brothers and sisters, who precede us as God s covenanted people we pray, For those who struggle to honor commitments or agreements; and for those who are harmed by broken commitments, especially in families we pray, For the poor, the hungry and the homeless; for those who lack education, adequate work or health care we pray, For the sick and dying, especially those in this community; for those who have died... we pray, Prayer Generous and loving God, we are grateful that you have chosen us as your people. Make us worthy of the covenant you have made with us; and help us to live out the Eucharist by giving ourselves for one another. We ask this in the name of Jesus, who gives himself to us again and again. Amen.

5 Tomai, isto é o meu corpo. Corpus Christi (Ano B): Êxodo 24,3-8; Salmo 116(115); Hebreus 9,11-15; Marcos 14, Consciente de ser o Enviado do Pai para realizar a plena libertação, Jesus prepara a sua Páscoa. Celebra a última ceia com seus discípulos ao entardecer do primeiro dia dos Ázimos, quando se imolava o cordeiro pascal. Oferecendo-se como o Cordeiro, Jesus dá um sentido novo à ceia pascal. O pão partido, que ele entrega a seus discípulos, torna-se símbolo de sua vida: Tomai, isto é o meu corpo (v.22). O mesmo ocorre com o cálice: Este é o meu sangue da nova aliança, que é derramado por muitos (vv.23-24). Depois de terem cantado os salmos de louvor ( ), no fim da refeição pascal, foram para o monte das Oliveiras. Assim, Jesus celebra a eucaristia (ação de graças), ofertando a vida pela salvação. Como memorial e anúncio de sua morte e ressurreição, todas as vezes que comemos do pão e bebemos do cálice, proclamamos a morte do Senhor, até que ele venha (1Cor 11,26). A 1ª leitura mostra a conclusão da primeira aliança, onde o povo assume viver os ensinamentos do Senhor: Faremos tudo o que o Senhor falou e obedeceremos. O(a) salmista agradece a Deus pela experiência de salvação, vivida em meio a uma grande provação, e renova seu compromisso de fé e esperança. Cristo é mediador de uma nova aliança, acentua a 2ª leitura. A oferta total de sua vida substituiu os sacrifícios das vítimas antigas e nos libertou plenamente, abrindo um caminho novo de comunhão com o Pai. Jesus manifesta seu amor através da doação total da vida pela salvação. Comungando de seu corpo e sangue, participamos de sua oferta e nos comprometemos a viver em comunhão, partilhando o pão cotidiano com os irmãos(as), sendo sinais do Reino. Oração (Extraído da Revista de Liturgia) Ó Deus de terna compaixão, estamos reunidos para lembrar a solenidade do Corpo e Sangue do teu Filho. Dá-nos, pelo mistério de sua entrega por nós, Vivermos em fraterna doação e solidariedade no serviço do teu reino. Por Cristo, nosso Senhor. Amém. Pe. Jonas D. Christal ( LEITURAS DA SEMANA: 2a feira: 2Cor 1,1-7; Sl 33(34); Mt 5, a feira: 2Cor 1,18-22; Sl 118(119); Mt 5, a feira: 2Cor 3,4-11; Sl 98(99); Mt 5, a feira: At 11,21b-26;13,1-3; Sl 97(98); Mt 10, a feira: Os 11, c-9; Cânt.
