(N.Morgan) An astounding discovery was made in which fragments of an early Christian prayer were found. On paper of Papyrus, this prayer dates back 1,500-year-old and was located in the famed John Rylands Library at Manchester University in Egypt. This discovery is so amazing because it is believed to be “the first ever found to refer to the Last Supper and use magic in the Christian context,” according to Roberta Mazza of the new John Rylands Research Institute. She says that the papyrus shows that early Christians had adopted the ancient Egyptian practice of writing charms on pieces of papyrus to be worn as amulets of protection against dangers.
