Lenten Evening Prayer 2021 ENGLISH version - Book - Page 14
Benediction
All kneel
The priest/deacon goes to the altar, genuflects and kneels.
While a Christ-centred hymn is sung, the minister, while kneeling,
incenses the Blessed Sacrament in the monstrance.
He then rises and says:
Minister:
All:
Let us pray:
Lord Jesus Christ,
you gave us the Eucharist
as the memorial of your suffering and death.
May our worship of this sacrament of your body
and blood help us to experience the salvation you
won for us and the peace of the kingdom
where you live with the Father and the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Amen
After the prayer the minister puts on the humeral veil, genuflects, and
takes the monstrance. In silence he makes the Sign of the Cross over the
people with the monstrance.
The Blessed Sacrament is then taken from the monstrance and replaced in
the tabernacle, in silence.
Dismissal
All stand
Leader:
The Lord be with you
All: And with your Spirit.
Leader:
Go in the peace of Christ
All:Thanks be to God.
