Talk:Eucharist

How is this relevant to creation apologetics? Is there some unique contribution we can make from the creationist point of view? ~ Webster (talk) 22:19, 21 November 2015 (EST)

I edited this article to clarify that the Eucharist is practiced in other denominations besides Roman Catholicism. I also changed the word "tradition" to "Sacrament". I'm not aware of any denominations that don't consider it a Sacrament, but if there are, let me know. Clarinetguy097 17:26, 16 April 2016 (EDT)

The Eucharist, or Communion, is a Sacrament that has been practiced since the beginning of the church. It was originally started by Jesus during the last supper. It involves eating bread and drinking wine, which are believed by Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and some Protestants to be Jesus's body and blood.

In Roman Catholicism
Catholics believe the Eucharist is one of the seven Sacraments and observe it during mass on Sundays.

The first Communion is when a person receives the Eucharist for the first time. In Catholicism, it takes place after First Penance. This often takes place when a child is 7 or 8, but it is not limited to those ages. It is often celebrated with family gatherings and gifts.
