Do This in Remembrance of Me

Abstract

 

This essay elucidates the meaning of the Eucharist received online based on the experiences lived by the Advent Lutheran Church congregation during the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Through critical reflection and emplaced knowledge, I encourage an understanding of the Eucharistic sacrament that moves beyond mere participation and its weekly celebration. At the same time, the understanding I advocate distinguishes between narrow and broad perspectives of what, as Christians, we value about the Lord's Supper, especially as a plausible response to parishioners' needs and expectations in these troubled times.
