The Eucharist, also called Holy Communion or Lord's Supper is was commanded by the Lord Himself, so is a must ritual for all who call themselves Christians.
It consists in the Christians gathering, usually in a church, for the Eucharist. They bring bread and red wine. The bread symbolizes the body of Christ that was on the cross for them, and the wine symbolizes the blood of Christ.
Then they follow the ritual the way is described in the Holy Bible.
They take the bread and give thanks to the Lord for the body that was broken for them on the cross. Then they break the bread (symbolizing the brake of the body of Christ) and spread the pieces among them. All of the ones who participate at the ritual takes a piece of the bread an eats it.
Similar, they take a glass of red wine and give thanks to the Lord for His blood that was shed on the cross for their sins. They take the glass and give it to everybody to drink.
This is done for three reasons :
- God commanded it
- Christians remind themselves and show the world the payment for sin and the great sacrifice that was made for their forgivenes.
- to remind themselves and tell the world that Jesus is coming again to take them to heaven.

∙ 13y agoThe Holy Eucharist is a beautiful and spiritual piece of bread.
Well it's more than a piece of bread. The Eucharist is actually God's body. It
helps forgive your venial sins. NOT moral sins or major sins that disobeyed the 10 commandments.
The way you celebrate it is quite simple. As you kneel, the priest says 'He broke the bread gave it all to his deciples and said, "Take this all of you and eat it, this is my body which will be given up for you (bells ring)." He broke the bread, gaved thanks and praised. Then Jesus took the cup and said, "Take this all of you and drink from it, this is my blood. The blook of the new and everlasting covenant. This will be shed for you and for all so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of me. (bells ring)'
Then, some people come up to the altar and eat the unleavened bread(which is actually Christ) that's served by the priest After that, the certain number of people get a bowl of the unleavened bread and serve it to the people in the Mass.
That's how you celebrate the holy Eucharist. However only Catholics celebrate it.
Remember that God is with you.

Is there Holy Communion on Good Friday?
It is an ancient tradition of the Christian Church not to celebrate the Eucharist or Mass Or Divine Liturgy on Good Friday. This tradition continues to be observed in virtually all Christian Churches, whether Roman Catholic, Eastern Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican or Protestant. But, virtually all Christian Churches have a prayer service on Good Friday, albeit a prayer service that does not include a complete Eucharist. Churches that practice Reservation of the Blessed Sacrament may distribute Holy Communion on Good Friday as part of the non - Eucharist Prayer Service. They use bread previously consecrated. Usually the previously - consecrated bread comes from the Holy Thursday Evening Eucharist commemorating the Last Supper. So it is quite possible to receive Holy Communion on Good Friday, but it is not possible to attend a Eucharist, Mass, or Divine Liturgy on Good Friday.
