+In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. AMEN
LET US PRAY:
LEADER: Holy Spirit, you who reveal Jesus to us, help us to discover him in his Eucharistic presence;
Beneath the veil of the Host, show us the powerful and generous Christ of the Gospels;
Let us see the Good Shepherd who knows each one of us, watches over us and calls us by name;
Allow us to listen to the incomparable Master who presents His doctrine and wishes to enlighten us
in all things.
ALL: Let us touch the Savior whose contact heals, and transforms bodies and souls;
Let us recognize this friend, happy to live with us and share our human existence;
Allow us to recognize the victim of Calvary who spares nothing of the gift of Himself to obtain for us
pardon and holiness.
Give us a profound attachment to Jesus in the Eucharist; that his ardent desire to remain among us
be met by our readiness to welcome Him.
LEADER: Holy Virgin, you who knew how to look at Jesus and penetrate the most profound depth
of his person:
Teach us to look at Him, to look at him at length and quietly, in the tabernacle where he is present.
Teach us to listen in silence to the words which he speaks to us and establish an intimate dialogue
with him.
ALL: Let us see the marvels which he desires to work in the depths of our souls.
Teach us to appreciate his closeness to us and the immeasurable friendship he shows us.
Help us to respond to his love with all the fire of our being, and like you, to immerse ourselves in a
loving gaze on him.
LEADER: Lord Jesus, as we contemplate on the miracle of your precious Body and Blood, help us
to revere this sacred mystery more in our daily life. May we reflect and ponder on your great love for
us that made you offer yourself as a Holy and Living Sacrifice for all. Teach us to love you in every
Altar at every Mass. May we recognize your sacred presence in Holy Communion. Most of all, help
us to live in the spirit of the wondrous sacrament of love and sacrifice for all.
You live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever.
ALL: AMEN.

Prayer:
LEADER: Lord Jesus, you truly are the Way, which leads us to the Father. You are the Truth, where we find
all knowledge and wisdom we need to face everyday’s struggles. You are the Life, for without you we are
nothing. We praise you this night and thank you for the gift of your Eucharistic Presence.
You never leave us alone. You shared with us this sacred meal for us to partake, and share with others, for
our salvation. Transform us to your image, and help us to live continually according to your law. May we
continuously show our love for the holy Eucharist, which is our way, truth and life in our daily struggles until
we come to see you in eternal glory. Amen.

Reader: From the Gospel of John. (15, 1-8)
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while
every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because
of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself;
it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from
me you can do nothing. If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers;
such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in
you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit,
showing yourselves to be my disciples.
The Gospel of the Lord.

Prayer:
LEADER: We are truly connected to you, Lord Jesus. Like the vine and its branches, we continually receive
the grace and life from you alone. We especially remember this in the Holy Eucharist. Your body is the food
which nourishes our spirit and makes us live more according to your will.
We pray, Jesus! Continue to nourish us in body and spirit through the Bread of Life which you provide us in
every Mass we attend. Enliven in us the sacredness of this Sacrament that we may continuously live as what
you will. Amen.

Reader: From the Gospel of John. (15, 9-17)
“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you obey my commands, you
will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love. I have told you
this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. My command is this: Love each other
as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my
friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s
business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known
to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last.
Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. This is my command: Love each other. “
The Gospel of the Lord.

Prayer:
LEADER: You loved us, Lord Jesus. You loved us until your death. You loved us as friends. You loved us
with an ultimate love. This is far greater than anything we can feel or imagine! You commanded us to extend
the same love to others, without anything in reserve. Your love remains with us in the Eucharist, this love we
receive in every Communion when we eat your precious Body and drink your sacred Blood. This is the great
manifesto of your love for us.
Teach us to show greater love for you in the Holy Sacrifice. Make us receive you in a greater disposition,
prepared and in the state of grace. Everytime we sin against you, help us to be sorry first for our iniquities
before we accept you in Communion. Make every moment a loving one with your divine presence in us. And
when the priest tells us, Ite, Missa Est, guide us as we become a living Eucharist of love to our brothers and
sisters, even to the point of offering our lives for you and for them. Amen.

In the Name…
LEADER: Let us praise the Lord,
ALL: and give him thanks!
Reflection…
(kneel)
Prayer:
LEADER: Throughout the years, Lord Jesus, a lot of people showed their hatred towards your Eucharistic
presence. Sacrileges done inside and outside the Church offended you so much. Many were led astray due
to their false interpretations of the Sacrament which you alone provide. This gave much offense to your
Eucharistic Presence, dear Lord.
Accept our sincere act of repentance for these and others wrongdoings of the world, Lord Jesus. We promise
to express our deep concern and love for this memorial of your saving work for us. This might lead us to
become the enemies of the world, but we know you’ll never leave us and that you’ll provide the Consoling
Spirit that will make us energized and prepared to defend your precious Body in words and actions. Guide
us, O Lord. We depend on your providence. Amen.

LEADER: Let us praise the Lord,
ALL: and give him thanks!

Reader: From the Gospel of John. (17, 1-5)
Jesus lifted his eyes toward heaven and prayed: “Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son
may glorify you. For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you
have given him. Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom
you have sent. I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. And now, Father,
glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.”
The Gospel of the Lord.

Prayer:
LEADER: Jesus, we feel your great glory in the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, the sacrament of
“Thanksgiving”. In your death and resurrection, you gave new life to the world, and likewise you manifested
your glory over all things. You never left us empty-handed for in the Holy Mass you continue to manifest this
glorious wonder to all believers.
May we be continuously strengthened by this glory – the Glory of God in our midst through the Sacrament of
Divine Love. May you continue to shine in glory in ever Mass we attend, in every sacred host we receive.
May we be glorified as well when we take you into ourselves. Transform our weak bodies into glorified bodies
like yours. And when death comes, call us to be in total happiness with you in the Kingdom in Heaven where
you live and reign forever. Amen.

(Kneel)
In the Name…
LEADER: Let us praise the Lord,
ALL: and give him thanks!
(sit)
Reader: From the Gospel of John. (17, 6-19)
Jesus lifted his eyes toward heaven and prayed: “I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the
world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. Now they know that
everything you have given me comes from you. For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted
them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. I pray for them. I
am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. All I have is yours, and all
you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. I will remain in the world no longer, but they are
still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name—the name
you gave me—so that they may be one as we are one. While I was with them, I protected them and kept
them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that
Scripture would be fulfilled.
“I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full
measure of my joy within them. I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not
of the world any more than I am of the world. My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that
you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. Sanctify them by the
truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. For them I sanctify
myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.”
The Gospel of the Lord.

Prayer:
LEADER: Lord Jesus, you are the eternal High Priest. In your sacrifice in Calvary, you gave a perfect sacrifice
which is sufficient for every time and place. Through the hands of the priest, you continuously give yourself
to us, and at the same time offer yourself to the Father.
We now pray and offer to you all your priests who tirelessly give us your Body and Blood in every Mass we
attend. Unworthy as they may be, keep them pure and worthy in mind, word and deed for them to really
celebrate the Sacrament of Love in persona Christi Capitis. Deliver them from every possible temptation, and
may they and their ministry inspire others to live a holy and pure life as you did here on Earth. Amen.

LEADER: Let us praise the Lord,
ALL: and give him thanks!

Reader: From the Gospel of John. (17, 6-19)
Jesus lifted his eyes to Heaven and prayed: “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will
believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in
you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory
that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to
complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.
“Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have
given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. “Righteous Father, though the world does
not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will
continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be
in them.”

Prayer:
LEADER: Lord Jesus, you are in the Father, just as he is in you. In the Holy Eucharist, you continuously
manifest your total unity with us. This is one big grace that no mere mortal can understand, except for those
enlightened by your Word and Grace.
We pray you, Lord! May we be one with you and the Father in every Mass we participate. May we feel that
we are never alone when we receive you in Communion; that you dwell deep within us. Make us feel loved,
strengthened, sanctified. Never leave us after which, and guide us that you may be manifested in us every
time we communicate and work with others. May we be Eucharistic People, a people of glory chosen for your
service and divine mission here in Earth. Amen.
