III. The Prayer of the Church
2770
In the Eucharistic liturgy the Lord’s Prayer appears as the prayer of the whole
Church and there reveals its full meaning and efficacy. Placed between the
anaphora (the Eucharistic prayer) and the communion, the Lord’s Prayer sums up
on the one hand all the petitions and intercessions expressed in the movement
of the epiclesis and, on the other, knocks at the door of the Banquet of the
kingdom which sacramental communion anticipates.
