Prayer of Thanksgiving
Our Father, we thank You that You have not forsaken Christ but have raised Him from the dead. And we know that You will not leave or forsake us, but that You have granted us new life and have promised to provide for our every need, even each day our daily bread. We give You thanks and pray that You would increase Your blessing upon us that we might give all the glory to You, now and ever. Amen.
Prayer of Preparation
Gracious and merciful Father, You are slow to anger and quick to forgive sins. You have forgiven us and invited us to be seated at Your great banqueting table. We give You thanks. As we eat and drink this meal, we ask You to fill us with Your Holy Spirit, increase our faith, empower us to good works in Christ, expand our love for You and for all of Your people. Bless us in the eating of this bread and in the drinking of this cup of blessing, we pray. Amen.
