I wouldn't be surprised to find some group doing it already.

There are some logistical considerations to get through on this, as well as the fact that most clergy would probably be against it for a variety of reasons.
But it would certainly be possible for people away from their home church to attend electronically via teleconferencing software from the other side of the world, a face on a television screen on the back wall of the church, and a congregation to participate with on a monitor several thousand miles away. The only restrictions would be bandwidth and equipment costs if a large number of people wanted to participate electronically at the same time, and of course the attitude of the clergy that would rather have the physical presence than an electronic one.
But I do believe that communion can be done, and so can the singing of hymns, and electronic handshakes across the miles. Collaboration software can work for religious education programs and other church activities. The sky is the limit, we just haven't tapped into it. Kinda like roller skates, as fast as they are, it's taboo for businesses, malls, etc. that could really use them.

If you just want to go to the store, go now. But a lot of faith traditions have a "consecration" aspect that turns the bread and wine into "communion elements." But, if we could rapidly prototype them.... Probably wouldn't work. What about virtual communion? our little avatar people could eat and drink little electronic bread and wine. I better stop now.

Oh they are probably already doing it somewhere. Just Google it, & see.
For the crackers, & wine, why go out, if you can visit an on-line store, & order it in?

I can't understand a religion
that thinks a crucifixion
makes a Friday "good".
And they don't think twice
about the torture device
their Sunday school kids made out of wood.
Sitting in the pews on Sunday morning
wondering what they're missing on TV.
And when they pass around the plate
they don't even hesitate
to buy a chance on immortality.
Eating Nilla wafers and drinking grape juice
will get you into heaven that's for sure.
So they don't think twice
when their president's advice
is "let's kill lots of Muslims in the war".
