SACRAMENTS; COMMUNION IN BOTII Klxus: for fuller exposition of the Roman Catholic teaching, see SlAss; As to the ma terials used, it may be said that bread and wine made from the juice of the grape have always been required, the latter mixed with water in the ancient historic churches; though the sects of the Encratites and Elkesaites substituted water for the wine, and some extreme advocates of total abstinence in modern times have suggested the use of unfermented grape-juiee. The Christians of Saint Thomas in India and the Syrian Chris tians mixed oil and salt with the bread. Un leavened bread has been used in the Western Church from an early date. probably by analogy with the usage of the Passover; the Eastern Church still employs leavened bread. As to the frequency of the observance of the rite, it may he said that it is celebrated very frequently, if not daily. in the Roman Catholic and Eastern churches; in the Anglican communion, the result of the Oxford Movement has been to increase the frequency so that it is generally celebrated bi monthly or weekly, and in many places daily; the Protestant churches have usually reduced it to once a month, Or quarter. or a year.
