Purposeful Eating Prayer

This is the season of coming together with family and friends, and it is around the table that we often gather to celebrate all those moments that are precious for us. It is around the table that we give appreciation and thanksgiving for all the many many gifts that Great Spirit and Earth Mother offer to us. So lets make from each time that we sit at the table to break bread and share it, a purposeful moment, a time of awareness, a time of joy.

This is why we share with all of you, our sisters and brothers, this purposeful eating prayer and or meditation.

Your first food would be bread which is (life) Communion.
 

The whole table would share one slice of bread which would be passed around the table, each person taking a small piece. Take your piece and break it in half, keeping one piece in each hand.

With your first piece/bite of bread;
"I eat this in celebration of life and the body, that all my relations will be fed and there is no hunger in The Earth Mother's abundance."

With your second piece/bite of bread;
"To all that nurtures my life, AHO Grandmother, Grandfather."
