Solidarity

Luke 22:14-20
When the hour came, he took his place at the table, and the apostles with him. He said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; for I tell you, I will not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks he said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves; for I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” Then he took a loaf of bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” And he did the same with the cup after supper, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.

Bread of life
Broken, torn, shared 
Equipping
Nourishing
Sustaining
Cup of salvation
Poured, supped, ingested 
Flowing
Quenching
Freeing
Bread and cup 
Filling
Releasing
Making new
Replenishing the body 
Infusing all of life
with sacred meaning
and connectedness 
Blurring the lines
Uniting heaven and earth
Past, present and eternity
in a great cloud of witnesses
Overflowing
out of our sanctuaries
onto the streets
marking time
until all can be fed again
with the life of the world.
Maranatha!
