Before <strong>Communion</strong>: -<br />
(Communicant 22):<br />
Lord Jesus, thank you that in a moment You will come to us. We have longed<br />
for You and waited for this moment, when you will come to dwell in us. I ask<br />
that You to come and shower us with love, peace and the joy of God. Please<br />
give us strength so that we may live the way You want us to, in friendship<br />
with You and with every person.<br />
(ALL CHILDREN): Amen.<br />
After <strong>Communion</strong>: -<br />
(Communicant 23):<br />
Lord Jesus, You have come to us, as You once did to the apostles. You have<br />
come in the form of bread and wine. You are now closer to us than ever<br />
before. We will alway remember this day with joy. It is a unique day for us,<br />
because from this day on, we can meet with You in church and receive You<br />
during <strong>Holy</strong> <strong>Communion</strong>.<br />
(Communicant 24):<br />
This is why we thank You, Lord Jesus, with all our hearts. We know that<br />
through the gift of <strong>Holy</strong> <strong>Communion</strong> we will deepen and strengthen our<br />
friendship with You. We love You and we wish to express our gratitude<br />
through a dance.
