Summary/Abstract: Trying to make a general short story of Liturgy from the age of Saints Apostles, we will start from a clue found in verse 42, writing Apostles Acts. As result of this, early christians ,,devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and to the fellowschip, to the breaking of bread and to prayer”. The first element of the program of these christian gatherings was, therefore, didactic – teaching of the Apostles, so preparatory, and the second was the eucharistic service: the breaking of bread.
