Day 135. What is required of you when you come to receive Holy Communion? (2024)

Today is day 135 and we are studying The Sacrament of Holy Communion.

135. What is required of you when you come to receive Holy Communion?

I am to examine myself: Do I truly repent of my sins and intend to lead a new life in Christ? Do I have a living faith in God’s mercy through Christ and remember his atoning death with a thankful heart? And have I shown love and forgiveness to all people? (Leviticus 10:1–5; Psalm 50; 1 Corinthians 11:27–32)

We will conclude today by praying the Exhortation on page 147 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
