Jesus' actions at the Last Supper became the basis for our celebration of the Eucharist. From the very beginning of the Church, the Eucharist formed the center of its life of worship. This is clearly indicated by the Acts of the Apostles. In the second chapter we hear that the 3,000 people baptized by the apostles on Pentecost devoted themselves to "the breaking of the bread," a Lucan term for the Eucharist. To this day, each time we gather for Eucharist, we remember and make present the Lord as Christians have done since Jesus first said, "Do this in remembrance of me." http://www.americancatholic.org/Newsletters/SFS/an0697.asp

Should all Christians celebrate Eucharist in the same way?

I do not agree with "All Christians should celebrate Eucharist in the same way". This is because I personally think that it just depends on the way you want to respect Jesus. Some groups could be more respectful or feel more strongly about Eucharist. So, it is down to the way Christians personally want to celebrate it. Some may feel strongly about doing certain parts of a celebration (such as blessing bread and wine).
