The following series of talks will make an attempt to explore the historical development of the different forms of the Eucharistic Prayers, their relationship with Jewish forms of prayer and the differences that exist in the Eucharistic Prayers used in the different rites of the Catholic Church.
These will help us to understand how the different forms of prayers came into being and how they are related to one another. Understanding of the development of Eucharistic prayers will help us to participate more intensely in the celebration of the Eucharist.
As Eucharist is also a sacrament of transformation and of healing, the talks will also focus on the ways of inner healing through Eucharistic participation.
March 9. Historical Development of the Eucharist
