VIGILIA

BEFORE THE EVENING MEAL IS EATEN, EVERYONE PRESENT IS
GIVEN A RECTANGULAR WAFER (OPLATEK) WHICH HAS BEEN
BLESSED BY A PRIEST. THEN EACH PERSON GOES TO ALL
PRESENT AND EXCHANGES BITS OF THE WAFERS WITH THEM
IN THE FOLLOWING MANNER: YOU BREAK A SMALL PIECE OFF
OF ANOTHER'S WAFER, WHO, IN TURN, BREAKS A PIECE OFF OF
YOURS. YOU WISH EACH OTHER SUCCESS IN THE COMING
YEAR. AFTER ALL HAVE BEEN CONTACTED IN THIS WAY, THE
BITS ARE EATEN.

Submitter comment: THIS IS A REMEMBRANCE OF THE LAST SUPPER.
