sedarLuke 22:7-8
Then came the day of Unleavened Bread, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. So Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover meal for us that we may eat it.”

Oh Lord,
As we journey through the last days of Lent
       and enter into the Holy Week when our Lord
            was crucified and died;
Prepare and center us,
So that we may pass the week
  with our hearts and minds focused on you,
In the name of the one we journey with,
         Jesus,
                                                            Amen.
