On the night before he died, to the government betrayed, at his people's freedom meal, Jesus broke the bread, and said: "Take and eat my broken self. Share in all I say and do. Though I go, I shall return: God is making all things new." When the meal was nearly done, and his blood would soon be shed, Jesus lifted up the cup; "All must drink of this," he said. "When the powers of earth prevail, and my blood is shed for you, taste the sign within the wine: God is making all things new."
