Penitential rite
I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
(strike breast) through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault;
therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, all the Angels and Saints,
and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

Communion Song
Think of Me and Remember Joel Raney
Take this wine I pour, take this bread I break. Search your heart and remember the sacrifice I make. Come and follow me. I will hold you forever. My life I give so you may live. Think of me and remember.
When your feet grow tired, and your flesh is weak, think of me and remember I am the rest you seek. Come and follow me, I will hold you forever My life I give, so you may live. Think of me and remember.
Remember how I prayed at Gethsemane, “Father, let this cup please pass from me.”
Remember how the soldiers captured me, then led the Son of Man to Calvary.
As you close the day, as you sing and pray, search your heart and remember the debt I came to pay. Come and follow me. I will hold you forever. My life I give, so you may live. Think of me and remember. Think of me and remember.
TRANSFER OF THE EUCHARIST
Following the prayer after Communion, all kneel as the priest incenses the Blessed Sacrament on the altar. The Blessed Sacrament is then carried down the center aisle of the Church to the main doors, out to West Street and into the hall to the altar of reposition. The Congregation is invited to follow the Blessed Sacrament in procession. As the Church does not celebrate Mass on Good Friday, the Eucharist is reserved so that Communion can be received at the celebration of the Passion of the Lord. The chapel will remain open for private prayer and meditation until 10:00PM.

Around this table God’s mercy flows
to hearts imprisoned by shame.

the flame of faith in our hearts.
We find our courage in Christ, the Lord,
till we become what we eat. Refrain:

Then we become what we eat. Refrain:
