“… he who shared my bread …”

I said, “O LORD, have mercy on me;
       heal me, for I have sinned against you.” 
5 My enemies say of me in malice,
       “When will he die and his name perish?”

7 Philip answered him, “eight months’ wages would not [...]

“… remember me …”

Who spoke first … on that first day of rememberance? Who blessed the cup? Who broke the bread?
Did someone finally whisper … “What do we do now?”

Did Andrew share with them his memories of his first walk with Jesus … [...]
