THE CODE: During the Vietnam War, American prisoners at the infamous Hanoi Hilton survived the isolation and the torture of the place because of two codes - the honor code and the "tap" code. The North Vietnamese never mastered the "tap" code, a code for communicating with one another between prison walls. Every Sunday, in a coded signal, the men stood and recited the Lord's Prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance.
CONNECTION: Through a simple pattern of taps against a wall, a group of isolated POWs established a community. With a few pieces of bread and fish, Jesus established a community among the multitude on that Galilean hillside. Through the bread of the Eucharist, Christ continues to establish a community among us. For the Church, the Eucharist is both "code" and the message, it is both noun and verb: The Eucharist unites us as a Church; in turn, we are to become the Eucharist we have received for the sake of others, with generosity and compassion, while working for reconciliation and justice.
