Apart from a small group of Anglicans that represent the Catholic wing of the Anglican denomination - usually called 'AngloCatholics' - Anglicans do not celebrate the 'mass', but instead call the same service Holy Communion, The Lord's Supper or the Eucharist, depending upon the individual local church's tradition. Also, apart from the group named above, most Anglicans reject the doctrine of transubstantiation, as it is in conflict with scripture, and is warned against in the 39 Articles of Faith of the Anglican Church as leading to superstition surrounding the consecrated bread and wine. Anglicans, then, mostly regard the Communion as a memorial of Jesus' death and resurrection, regard the bread and wine as symbols of his body and blood, and reject the Catholic doctrine of resacrifice and the real bodily presence of Christ at the service in favour of his spiritual presence. That all said, most Anglicans celebrate Holy Communion weekly or, at least, have the opportunity of celebrating weekly, although in some churches there are mid-week services of Holy Communion as well.
