Chalice and Loaf or Cups and Cubes
This article reflects on the celebration of communion in the Reformed tradition. Is there something sacred about wine, or is grape juice an acceptable alternative? Are there rules about whether the bread should be leavened or unleavened, store-bought or home-baked, white or wheat? Is a chalice more meaningful than a tray full of small cups? Who should bring the elements to the table—and when? Does it make any difference what we do with leftover elements? Some of these questions are addressed in the article.
