The Institution of the Eucharist

The Institution of the Eucharist is the fifth of the five Luminous Mysteries of the rosary, prayed on Thursdays.

And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke: and gave to his disciples, and said: Take ye, and eat. This is my body. And taking the chalice, he gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this. For this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many unto remission of sins.

Matthew 26:26-28 (Douay-Rheims)
