• The word Eucharist means ‘thanksgiving’. By receiving Holy communion, Christians are saying thanks to God for the gift of salvation.
• It is an act of giving thanks for Jesus that he allowed his body to be broken and his blood to be shed for humanity.
• In the service the congregation thank God for feeding them with the spiritual food of the body and blood of Christ.
• The Eucharist is thanksgiving not only for the death of Jesus but also for his resurrection, ascension and the promise of the coming of his kingdom.
