L: He commanded the skies above, and opened the doors of heaven;
C: He rained down on them manna to eat, and gave them the grain of heaven.
L: Mortals ate of the bread of angels; he sent them food in abundance.
C: He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens, and by his power he led out the south wind;
L: Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.
C: For great is the LORD and most worthy of praise;
Opening Prayer: Marcie Siegel
God of hope, when your hungry people longed for the slave food of Egypt, you opened the doors of heaven and rained down manna. Feed us with the bread of life at your table, that we may taste the freedom of eternal life and lead lives worthy of our calling, through Christ our head. Amen.
