What is First Holy Communion? Holy Communion, (also called the Lord’s Supper or The Eucharist) is a ritual or sacrament practiced in most denominations of Christianity. Holy Communion is a re-enactment of the Last Supper, the final meal that Jesus Christ shared with his disciples before his arrest, and crucifixion. Giving his disciples bread and wine during the meal, Jesus commanded his followers to “do this in memory of me” while referring to the bread as “my body” and the wine as “my blood”. Through this celebration, Christians remember Christ’s sacrifice of himself on the cross, by partaking in the Body of Christ, the bread; and the Blood of Christ, the wine.
