During the classes
I . Organizing time.
Guys, I'm glad to see you again. I think that today's lesson will bring us all the joy of communicating with each other.
II .Comprehension stage
At the beginning of the lesson, the teacher asks the children to imagine that they want to throw a big party and invite guests to it. Hand out paper and colored pencils to the children - let everyone draw a festive table with different delicious dishes. He asks the guys to talk about what holiday they want to invite guests to, who they want to invite and what treat on the table is the best and most delicious. At the same time, it is important to be able to lead the children to the fact that we always arrange a festive table (no matter what the occasion) for those we love, so we always, when preparing for the holiday, want to put on the table the best that we have.
You see how diligently we always prepare for the holidays! We prepare the best dishes and decorate the festive table. We do all this because we really love the people we want to see as guests. It’s so good to sit at the same table and celebrate something with those we love! With this we bring joy to our loved ones, we show them from the bottom of our hearts how dear they are to us.”
Our Lord Jesus Christ loves us. And it is precisely because He loves us that He instituted the Sacrament of Communion for us.

IV . Working on new material
Have you ever heard what Communion is?
1. The teacher’s story “The Last Supper” based on the textbook article p. 76-78.
Before His departure to the Cross, Christ gathered the apostles. It was a farewell meal. It is called that in different languages – “The Last Supper” or “ last supper" Taking a cup of wine in his hands, Christ said to the apostles: “Drink, all of you. This is My blood of the new testament, which is shed for you and for many.”
After that, he broke a loaf of bread and handed it to the apostles: “Taste (eat). This is My Body, broken for the remission of sins.”
Christ bequeathed: “Do this in My remembrance.”
You and I already know that, according to the Gospels, Christ, although he accepted death on the cross, was then resurrected. We have also already talked about the fact that Christians hope, following Christ, to become participants in the joyful universal Resurrection. The connection between these two Easters is considered to be the participation of every Christian in the body of the risen Christ: “if the body of Christ has risen, then in order for my immortal soul to reunite with my body, that is, for the sake of my resurrection, I myself must become a part of Christ.”
And so that people could become parts of Christ, His “participants,” Christ gave His Body to people at the Last Supper. But so that people would not be afraid, Christ gave His Body and Blood to people in the form of bread and wine.
The first “participants” were the apostles. Then they passed on the shrine to which they became involved, to other people.
We remember that in the life of Christians there is a very important word for them - “grace”. This is a good gift from God to people, or rather, the action of God in man. So, according to the Bible, Christ made a promise to His apostles to respond to their prayers. “Where two or three are gathered in My name, there I am,” He told them.
This means that the Christian congregation has a new and unexpected quality: human limitations are replenished from infinite Divine power and love. In the language of Orthodox thought, this is called the miracle of church unity. The life of the Church cannot be described only by those words and laws that describe the life of any human society.
Where the apostles gathered, they prayed, and Christ again gave ordinary flat cakes the same properties as during the Last Supper. That is, bread became more than bread, and wine became more than wine. This did not manifest itself in a change in appearance or taste. It’s just that the apostles and the Christians they communed with felt that with this bread Christ’s power and grace entered into them. They now understood the words of Christ - “Abide in My love... May My joy be in you and your joy be complete.”
Where the blood of a living being flows, there is his life and his body. If a Christian accepts the blood of Christ, he becomes a part of the Body of Christ. And where the Body of Christ is, there is His spirit and His love. That is why Christians do not consider the strangest commandment of Christ - “love your enemies” - impossible to fulfill. What is impossible for people, according to Christ’s assurance, will become possible if man and God are together. The love of Christ described in the Gospels is limitless, and extends even beyond those who considered themselves His enemies. He who is involved in Christ is involved in this His love. And therefore, with the help of Christ, he will be able to fulfill the commandment of forgiveness and love for his enemies.

3.Christian sacraments.
- What is a sacrament? How do you understand?
(Children share their opinions)
Communion with Christ in the Church is called a “sacrament.” A sacrament not because it is a secret (they say, we know what and how, but we won’t tell others!), but because it is a secret. Even the priest does not know how the transformation of bread into the Body of Christ occurs. A person can only know what he does himself. And a sacrament, from a Christian point of view, is an action not of man, but of God.
A sacrament, from a Christian point of view, is an action not of man, but of God.
What Christ said is conveyed through Scripture. What He did for people (unifying them with God) is transmitted through the Church. Since Christ left people not only his words, but also all of himself - His Life, Body and Blood, He found the opportunity to transfer all these gifts of His to all people (and not just the apostles). For this purpose, He created His Church, in which He performs the Sacraments. The most important of them are Communion and Baptism. IN Orthodox understanding the priest is like a postman who delivers parcels from God (the Sacraments) to people.
The task of the Church is to spread throughout all countries and throughout all eras the gifts that Christ gave to the twelve apostles two thousand years ago. The Orthodox say: during the days of His life on earth, Christ saved humanity, and this salvation reaches each individual person through his participation in the life of the Church and in its sacraments.
Through the apostles and their disciples (patriarchs, bishops and priests), God performs the sacraments in Christian Church. Therefore, Orthodox people are convinced that the Church is not just a collection of equally believing people. The Church is the presence of Christ in the world. The Apostle Paul called the Church “the Body of Christ.”
4. Liturgy.
Slides 5-24
The sacrament of holy communion is celebrated at a service called the Liturgy. This is the word in ancient Greece meant “a common cause,” as well as something that is done not for the sake of money, but simply for the benefit of people.
Christians go to church precisely for the sake of participating in the sacraments of the Church. This means that they go to the temple not in order to take something of their own there, but in order to receive from Christ through the Church that which cannot be made themselves. A person can pray on his own, study the Gospel, and do good deeds. But the Body of Christ can only be received.
In religion there are things that people do for the sake of God. And there is what God does for people. The Gospel speaks not about the sacrifice that people bring to God, but about the one that God brought to people. For the sake of people, Christ once ascended to the Cross. And for the sake of people, the Body of Christ gives its Easter properties to those who are ready to receive it.

During the classes
Guys! Look at our coloring pages and tell us what they show, who knows? - Participle. And the topic of our lesson today is “The Sacrament of Communion.”
Here is our work plan today (handout sheet with text):
Today in class we will remember, discuss and learnA eat:
Who, when and under what circumstances established sacrament of Communion?
What's happened "The Last Supper"?
What is the Church? Is it only this building, or a gathering of people, or do Christians see something in the Church? O better? What exactly?
What is the main purpose of the Church?
What happens during Liturgy?
We will begin our conversation about the Sacrament of Communion by remembering the days Holy Week- the last week of the earthly life of Jesus Christ.
Why do you think? (Because this sacrament was established by Jesus Christ on one of the days of Holy (Great) Week).
Work in the table in parallel with the presentation. After a short discussion, we record in a table what happened on each of these days.
But today we will not fill out the entire table, but only part of it. Until what day and why? - that's right, until Thursday - because the sacrament of Communion was established precisely on Maundy Thursday.
PassionateA I - Great - Week
PassionateA I- from the word "passion", – suffering. Week of the Suffering of Christ. The last week of the earthly life of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Every day it is called Great: Maundy Monday Maundy Tuesday, Great Wednesday, etc.
| Maundy Monday | Curse of the Barren Fig Tree |
| Maundy Tuesday | Expulsion of traders from the temple |
| Great Wednesday | Betrayal of Judas |
| Maundy Thursday | Last Supper. Prayer for the Chalice. Taking Christ into custody |
| Good Friday | |
| Holy Saturday | |
| Resurrection of Christ |
Exercise: Briefly write down in the table what happened on each of the Holy Days. O th Weeks.
So, who, when and under what circumstances established the sacrament of Communion?
Why did Christ call secret dinner (evening)?
How did the Savior's disciples fulfill their promise to celebrate the Sacrament of Communion in memory of their beloved Teacher?
- The apostles, and then all Christians, receive communion at the Liturgy - the main divine service of Orthodox Christians.
Do you know how the word is translated "Liturgy" With Greek language? –"Common cause"! The most important event that happens during the Liturgy is the communion of the Holy Mysteries of Christ.
In detail - about what the sacrament of Communion is.
About preparing for Communion - sacrament of Confession and Repentance. To accept Christ into yourself, you need to cleanse your soul from evil, from sin.
That's why church- this is not only a building (the house of God in which divine services are performed). This is also a meeting of believers.
And most importantly, Church- this is the Body of Christ, where the members of the Body are people, and the Head is Jesus Christ Himself. Communion not only cleanses, not only unites a person with Christ, but also unites all believers in Christ!
This is the main purpose of the Church.
That is why the Church has adopted the address “brothers and sisters.” We are all (believers) kindred spirits in Christ!
Coloring: pay attention to the color of the vestments of the clergy.
Carefully read an excerpt from a poem by the Russian poet and philosopher Vladimir Solovyov.
Yes! God is with us, not there, in the azure tent,
Not beyond countless worlds,
Not in an evil fire and not in a stormy breath,
And not in the fallen memory of centuries.
He is here, now - amid the random bustle,
In the noisy stream of life's anxieties.
You own a joyful secret:
Evil is powerless; we are eternal; God is with us.
Where do you think such joyful confidence arises in the soul of a believer? (Orally)

What are the Sacraments
Sacraments are sacred acts through which believers receive divine grace. For the sacrament to occur, two conditions must be met. Firstly, the sacrament must be performed by a legally appointed priest, observing all the rules for its administration. Secondly, a Christian must be internally ready to receive the sacrament.
Slide 5
Seven sacraments of the Orthodox Church:
- Baptism
- Confirmation
- Sacrament of marriage
- Repentance
- Communion (Eucharist)
- Unction (unction)
- Sacrament of the Priesthood
Slide 6
Baptism
Through this sacrament a person becomes a Christian.
Slide 7
Confirmation
Through this sacrament a person joins the Church.
Slide 8
Sacrament of marriage
In this sacrament, a man and woman receive a blessing for family life.
Slide 9
Repentance
In this sacrament, Christians cleanse themselves of their sins.
Slide 10
Communion (Eucharist)
In this sacrament, Christians, under the guise of bread and wine, take into themselves God Jesus Christ Himself.
Slide 11
Unction (unction)
Through this sacrament a person is healed of illnesses.
Slide 12
Sacrament of the Priesthood
Only men begin this sacrament. In it they receive the right to perform all other sacraments.
Slide 13
last supper
The meaning of the sacrament of Communion for a Christian is that through this sacrament, through God, who is Love for Christians, he is united with all other Christians, and all together they make up the Church of Christ.
Slide 14
Liturgy
Liturgy - (from the Greek “public” and “work”) - the name of the most important of Christian services.
Slide 15
Sacrament of Communion
In the photograph, a priest performs Proskomedia. During Proskomedia we prepare bread and wine for the Sacrament.
Slide 16
This particle, specially removed from the prosphora (specially baked bread), will become, after the descent of God’s grace, called upon by our prayer, the Body of Christ.
Slide 17
After preparing the “substance” for the Sacrament, that is, bread and wine, we transfer them to the Throne. This ceremony is called the Great Entry.
Slide 18
The priest prays for the Holy Spirit to descend on the bread and wine. We see hands raised up - a sign of especially solemn and deep prayer.
Slide 19
The deacon, who helps the priest during the service, points with an orar (a special ribbon hanging on his left shoulder) to the bread and wine. On behalf of all believers, the deacon turns to the priest with the words: “Bless, Vladyka, the holy bread... the holy Chalice...”.
Slide 20
In this photograph we see how the priest breaks the Lamb - the particle that became the Body of Christ, containing the fire of the Divine.
This is called "breaking" the Lamb. The lamb is split into four pieces. One part of the communion is for the clergy, the other three for the laity.
Slide 21
First, the clergy receive communion. They take a Particle of the Body of Christ in their hands and pray for the forgiveness of sins, bowing to the Throne.

During the classes
I. Organizational moment.
Guys, hello! Today I would like to start our lesson with S. Kopylova’s song “I haven’t gotten better yet.” Listen to it carefully and then answer the question:“Why does a person strive to become better?”
So, guys, what question is the girl asking herself?- I would like to understand, God, what is my purpose? And she answers it herself: “God knows how I try to become better, at least a little.”
For what?- Because this is the purpose of a person - to become better.
How to become better? –Do good deeds.
Well done. And also to become better,Orthodox ha person seeks union with God in his earthly life, because he believes that he will be with Him in eternity.
You and I already know that God, in the guise of his son Jesus Christ, appeared on Earth to make man better, to teach him to live according to the laws of God.
II. Introduction to the topic.
Christ left us his teaching, and his teaching is very great.
- What is the name of the book that will help us in the lesson, it tells about the life and teachings of Jesus Christ? - Gospel
Today we will talk about one of the main legacies of the Lord’s teaching, which is called the Sacrament of Communion.
So, the topic of our lesson (3rd slide) is “The Sacrament of Communion” (writing in a notebook ). Both words of the topic are not yet very clear. But now we can see how they are formed. Sacrament from “secret”, participle –ACCEPT PART. -Whom? -God.
- What questions should we answer today? -What is a sacrament? What is a communion?
III. Work on the topic of the lesson.
During our lesson, you and I must answer 4 questions - we have already asked 2 of them and I will add two (slide 4):
How did Christ convey himself to his disciples?
What is Communion?
What is liturgy?
What is a church sacrament?
At the end of the lesson we will return to them and answer them ourselves.
What is the name of the period of time into which Orthodox people enter on the eve of the Great Resurrection of Christ?Great Lent.
- How long does it last? Almost 7 weeks, and now it’s the 3rd week of Lent. This is the time when Christians, limiting themselves in food and entertainment, think more about their actions and prepare for a joyful, bright Easter.
Let's remember the event that happened 2000 years ago in the week called “Holy Week,” that is, the seven days of the week where Jesus Christ was given over to suffering and accepted death on the Cross. (3 slide)
The Lord knew in advance everything that would happen to him, so he gathered his disciples inThursday for the last meal together (eating). It was a farewell ceremony, where only his immediate circle was present, in other words, the 12 apostles, and none of the outsiders. Therefore, this event in history began to be called“The Last Supper.” (4 slide)
Guys,supper in translationfrom Slavic language comes from the word"evening" Andmeans "dinner". It was during this that the Savior predicted that one of the disciples would betray him, and the other would deny him three times before dawn.? Judas,Peter
(5th slide) Guys, look at the “Last Supper” icon. Please note that Christ sits in the center in the place of honor, and His disciples are around the table.
And above all, except one, the divine light shines.
Tell me, why is one of the students not enlightened by it? Who is this? –Judas of Kariot, who betrayed Christ
Before handing himself over to his disciples before his suffering for the sake of atonement for human sins, the Lord committedfoot washing ritual to his students. (6 slide) Look at the slide depicting this action.
- Determine and prove whether this is a painting or an icon?
Look carefully at this picture. The Lord sits on his knees in front of the disciples, holds a jug of water and wipes the feet of the apostles with a towel.
- Why do you think Jesus did this? (children's answer options)
Let's summarize: firstly,The Lord did this to show his love to his disciples , and secondly,to show true humility to the apostles, since at that moment they began to argue about which of them was the most important?
Thus,He showed them that everyone is equal!!!
Now let's open itGospel of Matthew (chap. 26, 26) and read about how the Sacrament of Communion was established.
(Slide 7) “Then he gave praise to God the Father, took the bread, blessed it, broke it and gave it to the disciples, saying:“Take, eat: this is My Body, which is broken for you.” (explaining words to students)
(8 slide) “Then He took the cup of grape wine, blessed it and gave it to the apostles, saying:“Drink of it, all of you: this is my Blood of the New Testament, which is shed for you and for many for the remission of sins.” Having communed them, the Savior left a commandment that this great sacrament should be constantly performed by people for the purpose of remembering it.
Thus, Jesus Christ established one of the great Sacraments of the Orthodox Church, Communion, that is, the union of a person with a piece of God on Earth.
In order for people to become parts of Christ, His “participants,” Christ at the Last Supper gave people His Body and Blood in the form of bread and wine. (Slide 9)
So who were the first communicants? That's right, the first “participants” were the apostles. Then they passed on the shrine to which they became involved, to other people. (Slide 10-11 G. Dore, 12-L. da Vinci)
Fizminutka
2. - IN Orthodox churches Communion is a special action that leads people to Christ, performed by the disciples of the apostles - the priests - during the divine liturgy. (13 slide)
Liturgy - is the most important divine service in the church, during which the Most Holy Sacrament of Communion is performed, established by our Lord on Thursday evening, on the eve of his suffering on the cross.
Guys, liturgy has different names. (Slide 14) The first name is Greek, means “public service” and indicates that the Sacrament of Holy Communion is a propitiatory sacrifice to God for the sins of the entire community of believers, living and dead.
Guys, pay attention to the word “propitiatory”. How do you understand it?
In apostolic times, that is, when the apostles lived, the “Liturgy” was called “the breaking of bread.” (Slide 15) Look at the slide.
Who is depicted on it? (Priest)
What is he doing? (breaks bread)
That is why this Sacrament was called that.
During the liturgy, in the very first part, which is called Proskomedia, bread and wine are prepared for the sacrament of Communion. (16 slide)
The bread for Communion is called Prosphora (slide 17).
While the Priest reads the divine prayers, the bread and wine, by the power and action of the holy spirit, are transformed into the true body and blood of Christ. And no one can explain how this happens, not even the angels.Bread becomes more than bread, and wine becomes more than wine. This does not manifest itself in a change in appearance or taste. Simply, Christians who receive communion feel that with this bread Christ’s power and grace enter into them. (18 slide)
Watching the film “The Sacrament of Communion”
3. - Guys, in order to take communion you need to follow some rules.
In order to receive Communion, you must fast for at least three days (during fasting you do not eat eggs, meat or dairy products), attend church services more often, and on the evening before Communion, you must come to church for the evening service and confess your sins.
On the day of communion they do not eat or drink anything from midnight. In the morning they come to the temple and during the Liturgy they reverently approach St. More often remembering the Death and Resurrection of Christ. At the end of the Liturgy, they thank God and go out into the world to do good deeds.
By following these rules, after Communion, people feel the grace of God, joy, tenderness and great humility, as we unite with a piece of God. (19 slide)
Have any of you received communion? Were your feelings close?
Listen to Anna Pirkova’s song “For God is With Us”
3. Communion with Christ in the Church is called a “sacrament” . A sacrament not because it is a secret, but because it is a mystery.(Slide 20)
Even the priest does not know how the transformation of bread into the Body of Christ occurs.
A person can only know what he does himself. Aa sacrament, from a Christian point of view, is an action not of man, but of God. ( Slides 21-22)
Since Christ left people not only his words, but also all of himself - His Life, Body and Blood, He found the opportunity to convey all these gifts of His to all people. For this purpose, He created His Church in which He performs the Sacraments. (Slide 23)
“Where two or three are gathered in My name, there I am,” Christ said to the apostles. (Slide 24)
In the language of Orthodox thought this is called a miraclechurch conciliarity . (Slide 25)
The life of the Church cannot be described only by those words and laws that describe the life of any human society. Through the apostles and their disciples (patriarchs, bishops and priests) God performs the sacraments in the Christian Church. (slide 26-27)
Therefore, Orthodox people are convinced that the Church is not just a collection of equally believing people. The Church is the presence of Christ in the world. (slide 28)
The Apostle Paul calledChurch "Body of Christ". (slide 29)
I V . Securing the topic. EXERCISE. Fill the table.
(Fill in on printed map tables and on the board - slide 30)
Christians go to church precisely for the sake of participating in the sacraments of the Church. (Slide 31)
A person can pray on his own, study the Gospel, and do good deeds. But the Body of Christ can only be received. And this can only be done in the temple during the Divine service. - Which? (Slide 32)
In religion there are things that people do for the sake of God. And there is what God does for people. (Slide 33)
For the sake of people, Christ once ascended to the Cross. And for the sake of people, the Body of Christ gives its Easter properties to those who are ready to receive it.
Easter properties - what are they? (Easter - resurrection).
Remember the beginning of the lesson - right now, during the days of Great Lent, Orthodox people partake of the Body and Blood of Christ. - For what? (Become a part of Christ)
V. Summary.
(Slide 34) To summarize, I would like to use lines from Tatyana Egorova’s poem dedicated to the great Sacrament. Let's read them expressively:
And there is no higher happiness in the world:
Open your lips before the Cup,
Receive Holy Communion
And become a part of Christ.

Today I want to offer you a lesson from the ORKSE course “The Sacrament of Communion,” intended for ordinary fourth-graders - an important lesson, a lesson difficult for children to understand. Over the years, many lessons on this topic have been published on websites. For me, when compiling a lesson, the guideline was A. Kuraev’s textbook, the development of the Svetoch website, the help of an Orthodox priest and the creativity of S. Kopylova.
The Lord tells us about the obligatory nature of communion for all who believe in Him: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the Flesh of the Son of Man and drink His Blood, you will not have life in you. He who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood has eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. For My Flesh is truly food, and My Blood is truly drink. He who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood abides in Me, and I in him” (John 6:53–56).
