A small snippet of the sharing on the Holy Eucharist, by Shiji Lyndon and myself at Tabor Bhavan for the FIRE '11 retreat organized by Jesus Youth Mumbai.
1 Corinthians 11:23 - 29 For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me." In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me." For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.
The FIRE '11 retreat, held at Tabor Bhavan, Kalyan from June 9 to June 12, was led by Fr. George Kumblumoottil O.P. and Bro. Elvis Kottooran, where 320 participants were rejuvenated by the mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Thanks and praise be to the Lord Jesus Christ, for His mighty presence and for the transformation in the lives of the organizers and the participants.
