question about church...

[Dan]

Nothing major, don't worry. I'm writing a scene in my script where one of the characters goes to church and recieves communion. I was just wondering 1) the priest gives you the bread, whats the name of the guy that gives you the wine? and 2)what does the priest and the other guy say to you, and what are you supposed to say back? I know it's horrible that I don't know this, I was only confirmed seven years ago and all, but I've forgotten. Hook me up, someone, and you'll get a mention in the 'special thanks' list in the credits!

Hey dan,

Most of the time a Priest gives you the wafer and a Eucharistic
Minister will give you the wine. When the Priest gives you the wafer (the host), he will say to you "The Body Of Christ", to which you reply "Amen". Keep in mind though, that a Priest, Deacon, or Eucharistic Minister can give you either the wafer or the wine.

Hope this helps!

It can all depend on the religion and the church.

Catholic church envisioned as the Holy Trinity Catholic Church that is right down the road where I used to live in Orangeburg, SC.

Thanks for the help, Eric!
