Week three of our spring focus, "why the church does what it does". Communion … the Lord's Supper … Eucharist. However it's identified, most churches celebrate / commemorate the last supper Jesus ate with His disciples—particularly what He did with bread and wine. Listen to that story and our explanation of what it means and why Christians around the world receive the Lord's Supper. ~
