The church I attend does it semi regularly. We use grape juice in place of wine.

A few questions for the community

Do you or your place of worship(if you attend one) have communion

Does it use a type of wine or a grape juice

Does it involve bread or communion wafers

How do you view the practice. A symbolic practice or a literal one?

From my research some see it as a literal consumption of the body and blood of Christ. Others me included see it as a symbolic practice.

The church where I partake in communion leans Baptist but is officially nondenominational so it’s practices maybe way different than others. I myself am more of a nondenominational person than anything but going to this church was a family tradition with my grandmother.
