Readings for Evening Mass: http://www.usccb.org/nab/042111a.shtml
In Christ Jesus, this night we have received the Eucharist, heard the call to priestly service, and been commanded by Christ: "I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do." (Jn 13: 15) This night, in Jesus, God has washed our feet; God has washed our feet and gave us his Body and Blood . . . "In Remembrance" of Him, how can we do less than that for each other, in his holy name?
God our Father,
we are gathered here to share in the supper
which your only Son left to his Church to reveaal his love.
He gave it to us when he was about to die
and commanded us to celebrate it as the new and eternal sacrifice.
We pray that in this Eucharist
we may find the fullness of love and life.
Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Amen (Opening Prayer - Evening Mass of the Lord's supper)
