The Eucharistic Prayer: an introduction
The Eucharistic Prayer: an introduction The Eucharistic Prayer marks the summit of the Mass. This does not mean that the other parts of the Mass are less precious. They are important, too. But they find their center and climax in the Eucharistic Prayer. Eucharist means thanksgiving. As the priest recites the Eucharistic Prayer, we should concentrate all our senses on the action--the mystery--taking place on the altar. We should join the priest and the entire Church in offering to God the redeeming sacrifice of Christ on the cross, and give thanks for God's goodness and glory. The Eucharistic Prayer includes not only words but also action: the Consecration. For this reason, it is the model, root, and crown of the personal prayer of every Christian.
