Second Reading

1 Corinthians 11, 23-26

For the tradition I received from the Lord and also handed on to you is that on the night he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took some bread,
and after he had given thanks, he broke it, and he said, 'This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.'
And in the same way, with the cup after supper, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Whenever you drink it, do this as a memorial of me.'
Whenever you eat this bread, then, and drink this cup, you are proclaiming the Lord's death until he comes.
