The Very Reverend Samuel G. Candler
One Bread. One Body.
You may notice that, during every Eucharist at the Cathedral, during every Holy Communion, the presiding priest at the altar elevates one piece of bread and breaks it. That act is known as The Fraction. Even if that one piece of bread, or wafer, is rather small, it symbolizes that each of us is fed from one bread at the altar. That one bread is broken, like Christ's one body is broken, for each of us. Read more. |
