Jesus took the most basic of foods, bread and wine, to represent his sacrifice. There were four movements in Jesus’ actions: He Took the bread, Blessed it, Broke it, and Gave to his disciples. We continue to imitate his actions to remember his broken body and shed blood. So we remember, each week, each month, we remember and wait.
