Did you know. . .
According to gospel, the Last Supper was the last meal Jesus shared with his apostles before his death.
Communion is a sacrament and the central act of worship in Christian churches, which was instituted at the Last Supper and in which bread and wine are consecrated and consumed in remembrance of Jesus.
In Christian tradition the Holy Chalice is the vessel Jesus used at the Last Supper to serve the wine. The chalice occupies the first place among sacred vessels, and by a figure of speech the material cup is often used as if it were synonymous with the Precious Blood itself.
A paten (Latin Patena, Greek patane, "plate") is the plate that holds the consecrated bread during communion.
