  1. Lord's Supper

Biblically the Last Supper was just that - the last supper that Jesus had with his disciples before the crucifixion the next day.

However the sacrament that Jesus instituted at this Last Supper has several names.

It is called the 'Lord's Supper', 'the Eucharist',or 'Holy Communion' by mostly Protestant Churches, and the 'Mass' by Roman Catholic churches. Although Roman Catholics differ from other denominations in how they interpret what happens at the Mass, the procedure is the same; the Last Supper, when Jesus instituted the new covenant between God and humanity in the bread and wine, is re-enacted with the priest or minister in the role of Jesus, breaking the bread and saying his words.
