Do many Christians commemorate he Memorial of Christ's death or the "Last Supper or or "the Lord's Evening...

Question

Meal...?

Answer 1

Catholics do. The wine and bread that Catholics have at every mass symbolize the body and blood of Christ. They have a "feast day" dedicated to something or someone every single day of the year. But the last supper is celebrated even more so just like Christmas, Easter Sunday, and the holidays that most people don't know about like the Assumption and Pentecost. They have a big ceremony every day of Easter week, a bigger ceremony on Good Friday and the biggest one on Easter Sunday. From the time of the crucifixion to the resurrection (I mean symbolic calendar days of the week for all you smart a**es out there.) Anyway, during that weekend they remove all holy water from the cisterns and their is no wine and no communion "host". They even take the host out of the adoration chapels and close the adoration chapels (that is significant if you know what an adoration chapel is, it is not just the regular church building). But this is to symbolize Christ's death. And of course, Easter Sunday, the resurrection.

Episcopals have "extra church" during Easter week but they do not make as big of a deal out of it as Catholics do. In my experience anyway, but that could also have a lot to do with the size of the churches.

If you really want more information about it there is a ton of Catholic info on the web. But I would advise you look only at sources connected with actual churches if you want to know the Church’s official position on something. There are a lot of church Nazi's on the web saying stuff like Catholics worship Mary, we "drink" at church, we are all going to burn in hell, etc. But anyway, I think Catholics are the red headed step children of the religious world, second most hated in America behind the Muslims.

Wow, I did not mean to be so long winded. Hmm . . . . . . . Am I turning into a Catholic cheerleader? Those people used to get on my nerves.

Answer 2

Catholics celebrate the Last Supper, which is the eternal fulfillment of the Jewish Passover, and the definitive new covenant sacrifice for sin, at daily Mass.

Special observances are held on Holy Thursday evening during Easter week, where the Pope, and many other priests around the world, reenact Christ's washing of the feet.

Answer 3

I do! almost all Christians celebrate the Lords Supper as a memorial to Christ.

Answer 4

I could be wrong but I always thought the Last Supper was what the Christian church used as a ritual called "communion", which involves bread and wine?

Maybe there are two commerorative meals?

Answer 5

All of Jehovahs witnesses commemorate the memorial of Christs death, every year, on the day he said to ( as provided in the scriptures) the say of the old jewish passover.
its taken as a very serious, solomn occasion,

I personally don't beleive you are serious about following jesus if you don't do that, as it is a spefic and direct commandment.

I don't mean that as an attack on anyone, but that is how I feel
