In churches across the country and around the world, congregants gather around a table to share in Holy Communion. The specific name, practice, frequency, and theological understandings of Christians concerning the Holy Meal have, since its inception, ranged across the gamut. While many Christians probably give little thought to why or how their denomination or organization has come to practice the sacrament in the way it has, it might be of interest to know a little about your church's history of celebrating Communion. In addition, as we gather to share in the meal, it is helpful to consider why we are participating, what we believe about this shared meal, and how God is made known through the sacrament.
