“Whenever I’ve served communion, I usually say two phrases.  I hand out the bread and tell someone, “The bread of Christ broken for you.”  And then as the person dip the bread in the cup, I saw “The blood of Christ, shed for you.”  Whenever we have communion, we remember that Christ was tortured and brutalized for our sake. We remember that Jesus offered up his own body for the sake of the world. “
