HOLY THURSDAY MASS OF THE LORD’S SUPPER

set aside our lives and ourselves
GATHERING THE BODY OF CHRIST
During this time, when we cannot come together in our usual way, we are left yearning for
the presence of Christ in a variety of ways. The church teaches that Christ is present in:
1. The Eucharistic Body and Blood of Christ
2. The celebrant of the sacrament who stands as Christ – usually the priest or deacon
3. In the Word proclaimed during public worship; the Holy Spirit touches each person in a
powerful way when Christ speaks to His Church through the scripture proclaimed.
4. In the Mystical Body of Christ gathered for public worship – us, our community.
In this time of unprecedented world crisis, let us remember that when we gather for public
worship, regardless of the location, we are gathered as the Body of Christ who is then truly
present to us. Let us hold each other in prayer as we keep Holy Week from our own homes
and be Christ for each other and the world.
Join us as we “Stop & Pray” and “Watch & Pray” throughout the Triduum to try and keep the
following schedule as a parish community:
Holy Thursday
3p Stop & Pray
Home Prayer Service or Stations online
8p Watch & Pray Mass of the Lord’s Prayer

or Home Prayer Service
Visit www. stbchurch.org/spiritual-communion to “watch & pray” mass online celebrated by
our own priests and make a “Spiritual Communion.” There are separate packets online to
help you pray the Home Prayer Services.
This packet is designed to help you follow along with the online Mass for Holy Thursday.
Pray for those preparing to join the Church through the RCIA
The Easter Vigil is the usual time for adults
and children over the age of 7 to join the Catholic Church
through Baptism, Confirmation & Eucharist.
Because of the pandemic, however, they are waiting.
They have spent months preparing to fully join us in faith
and seek to celebrate new life in Christ.
Let us pray that they embrace this Holy Week with the knowledge
that once we can gather again at Church,
not just virtually but in person, we will eagerly celebrate with them
their new life in Christ and His Church.
Prepare for prayer:
Set up a prayer area with a candle, cross/crucifix, bible & colored cloth:
Holy Thursday = white; Good Friday = red;
Holy Saturday = purple; Easter Sunday = white & gold
*For Holy Thursday:
• you are invited to ring bells (if you have any) during the singing of the Gloria
• we invite you to pause the online service and celebrate a ritual washing of the
feet, so you will also need a pitcher of water, bowl & towel.
Individuals: call a friend to pray at the same time to help your celebration.
Families/groups: arrange for enough chairs (sofa, sitting space, etc)
Families with young children: consider using only the Home Prayer Service Packet &
other options like Stations of the Cross (Children’s version online) since those may be
easier for young children to engage.
Prayer of Preparation
“Let us offer our hunger and sorrow in solidarity with those around the world who regularly go
without the Sunday Eucharist because of illness, lack of ministers, or isolation. May Christ,
who is present wherever two or three are gathered in his name, bring us all healing and
peace and unite us together in his Spirit of love.” (Diana Macalintal, www.liturgy.life)
Other things to remember
Prepare your heart & enrich your prayer with the abundance of online resources.
Dress up as you would for Mass.
Take pictures of your prayer space & family at prayer during Holy Week & share them
on St. Bernadette’s Facebook page and email your pictures to office@stbchurch.org.
When we are finally able to get back together at Church, we will use your pictures to
remind us of our time together while we were apart!

of justice and new life.

Eucharistic Prayer
Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus,
I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things and I desire to receive you in my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me to be separated from you.
Amen.
Prayer after Communion
Holy Thursday Mass does not end
but rather leads us into the events of Good Friday.
Under normal circumstances, we would process with the Blessed Sacrament
to a separate location, recalling Jesus’ journey and agony in the garden
as well as his eventual arrest.
Though we cannot hold Night Watch
and will not transfer the Blessed Sacrament to another location,
you are invited to adore Christ from your home
and keep watch for a small stretch of time,
praying with the music and text provided below.

Songs of Adoration & Night Watch
Pange Lingua
Pange, lingua, gloriosi,
corporis mysterium,
Sanguinisque pretiosi, quem in mundi pretium
fructus ventris generosi Rex effudit Gentium.
Nobis datus, nobis natus
ex intacta Virgine,
et in mundo conversatus, sparso verbi semine,
sui moras incolatus miro clausit ordine.
In supremae nocte coenae
recumbens cum fratribus
observata lege plene cibis in legalibus,
cibum turbae duodenae se dat suis manibus.
Verbum caro, panem verum
verbo carnem efficit:
fitque sanguis Christi merum, et si sensus deficit,
ad firmandum cor sincerum sola fides sufficit.
Tantum ergo Sacramentum
veneremur cernui:
et antiquum documentum novo cedat ritui:
praestet fides supplementum sensuum defectui.
Genitori, Genitoque
laus et jubilatio,
salus, honor, virtus quoque sit et benedictio:
Procedenti ab utroque compar sit laudatio.
Sing, o tongue, the mystery of the glorious Body,
and of the precious Blood, which in the world
the King, the fruit of noble birth,
poured out as the value of the nations.
Given to us, born to us, from untouched Virgin,
and in the world kept company, had scattered
the seed of the word, his own delay of exile,
concluded in wondrous order.
In the most supreme night at dinner,
reclining with brothers, to observe
the fullness of the law, a meal in accordance
with the laws, food of the multitude of the
twelve, he gave himself into their own hands.
Precious word, true bread, word made flesh:
and made of the blood of Christ alone,
and if the senses failed, to the sincere heart
made strong, faith alone supplied.
So great therefore a Sacrament,
let us venerate with faces to the ground:
and let the ancient instruction give way
to a new rite: let faith furnish the supplement
when the senses fail.
To the Begetter and the Begotten
be praise and jubilation, health, honor, power,
and likewise blessing:
to the one proceeding from both
be equal praise.
I Love You, Lord by Laurie Klein
I love you, Lord,
and I lift my voice
to worship you,
O my soul.
Rejoice! Take joy, my King
in what you hear,
may it be a sweet, sweet sound
in your ear.
Kyrie Eleison by Chris Tomlin
1. Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy.
Hear our cry and heal our land.
Let kindness lead us to repentance;
bring us back again.
2. Who is this God who pardons all our sin?
So ready to forgive;
You delight to show Your mercy. (2x)
For Your name is great and Your heart is grace;
Kyrie Eleison!
Over all You reigh. You alone can save;
Kyrie Eleison!
Lord, have mercy, Christ have mercy on us now.

Holy Darkness by Dan Schutte
Holy darkness, blessed night, heaven’s answer hidden from our sight.
As we await you, O God of silence, we embrace your holy night.
1. I have tried you in fires of affliction;
I have taught your soul to grieve.
In the barren soil of your loneliness,
there I will plant my seed.
2. I have taught you the price of compassion;
you have stood before the grave.
Though my love can seem
like a raging storm,
this is the love that saves.
3. Were you there when I raised up
the mountains?
Can you guide the morning star?
Does the hawk take flight
when you give command?
Whey do you doubt my pow’r?
4. In your deepest hour of darkness
I will give you wealth untold.
When the silence stills your spirit,
will my riches fill your soul.
5. As the watchman waits for morning,
and the bride awaits her groom,
so we wait to hear your footsteps
as we rest beneath your moon.
