communion services
Sacramental worship ceremonies
Communion services are religious ceremonies in which Christians share bread and wine (or grape juice) commemorating the Last Supper of Jesus Christ.
The term covers both the ritual itself and the physical items used—plates, cups, and trays designed for distributing the elements to congregants: The church purchased new communion services for Easter.
