Your Sacred Table - A Prayer before Communion - By Saint Francis de Sales

Divine Saviour,

we come to Your sacred table

to nourish ourselves,

not with bread but with Yourself,

true Bread of eternal life.

Help us daily to make a good and perfect meal

of this divine food.

Let us be continually refreshed

by the perfume of Your kindness and goodness.

May the Holy Spirit fill us with His Love.

Meanwhile, let us prepare a place

for this holy food by emptying our hearts.

Amen.
