Summary/Abstract: The text entitled, “Liturgy of the Sacrificial Feast – the Communion with Christ and Brothers” presents an analysis of prayers and acts found in the Rite of Communion or that part of the Holy Mass which is leading from Our Father until after the Holy Communion Prayer. These Rites are imbued with the meanings connected with union with Christ, peace and union with our brothers. They allow the faithful to participate in God through the Divine Union with Him. In addition they expound the social dimension as the very word explains, that is “communio”. Separate elements of these rites represent as if steps, phases of this Communion.
