Family Faith

The Breaking of the Bread
At our evening meal, when my husband passes the bread, he breaks the first piece and shares it with everyone at the table. This is a reminder to of the breaking of the bread at the Last Supper. We also raise our glasses of water or juice and drink together as a reminder of the sharing of the blessed wine at the Last Supper. We feel that this activity is a daily reminder of our faith and is a source of family unity in our home.

Planning a Special Family Meal

He was made known to them in the breaking of the bread. Luke 24:33

Plan how you will remember the Last Supper of Jesus when you come together with your family for a meal.

A reading from Scripture...
Prayer over the bread...
Prayer over water or juice...
