We pray through Easter Thursday with a simple rhythm of invocation, offering, and thanksgiving that places our whole day on the altar with Christ. We hear Saint Gaudensius of Brescia explain the Eucharist as Christ’s abiding gift, our living memorial of redemption, and the food that sustains us on the road to the Lord. 
• opening prayers and the sign of the cross 
• Morning Offering through the Immaculate Heart of Mary 
• the Eucharist as the legacy of the new covenant and pledge of Christ’s presence 
• “unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood” as a call to real communion 
• priests and people keeping the memorial until Christ comes again 
• bread from many grains as an image of the one Body of Christ 
• wine from many grapes and the cross as the winepress 
• the words of institution and the command to remember 
• a closing prayer for reconciliation and freedom from sin
