Practical Tips for Using Prefilled Communion

by Pathlie Lee Business consultant

Holy communion is a popular practice that’s a significant part of any church service. It’s not unusual to find Christians celebrating holy communion during Sunday service, a hospital visit, church conference, etc. The act of taking bread and wine allows Christians to reflect on the death and resurrection of Christ. 

The bread signifies Christ’s body, and the wine represents his blood which was given for the sake of His followers. Traditionally bread and wine are used; however, you can use grape juice or wafers if you don’t have access to them. Preparing for Holy communion is a daunting task, especially if you have a large congregation. Thankfully there’s a faster way to do it: prefilled communion cups.

What are prefilled communion cups?

As the name suggests, these are prepackaged holy communion elements that are ready to serve. These cups come with a wafer and communion juice and simplify the preparation process saving tons of time and energy. Even with a large congregation, preparing for holy communion is a lot easier. What’s great about these prepackaged communion cups is how easy they are to use: just unseal the outer covering to access the wafer, then unseal the second covering to access the juice. 

Even though these prefilled cups are making things a lot easier, they are still relatively new. Here are helpful tips to keep in mind when using these prefilled communion cups.

1.       They last long

These prepackaged communion cups are manufactured in a safe, hygienic environment that guarantees freshness. They can last for over ten months without refrigeration, meaning you don’t have to worry about them going bad fast. Ensure that you check the manufacture and expiration dates on the packages before purchasing.

2.       They are easy to open

These cups are designed with a clear, firm top that allows you to see the wafer. To remove it, bend the tab downwards until it snaps and releases air. This will make the edges of the top seal a lot easier to find and open. 

3.       They are suitable for all ages

The natural juice product in the cups has no added sugars, fructose, or GMOs, making it suitable for all, from young kids to elderly people. 

4.       Clean up is a lot easier

Once communion is done, you don’t have to worry about washing the cups. Simply allocate a container where congregants can place their used cups, and that’s it. The cups are recyclable, meaning they can be used in the future, reducing plastic waste.

5.       They are sanitary

In light of the coronavirus outbreak, a lot of congregants are worried about what they touch while at church. Given the communal nature of the traditional way of taking holy communion, it would have put a lot of people at risk. Thankfully, prefilled communion cups are aseptically prepared, meaning no human hands touched them during the manufacturing and packaging process.  

Prefilled communion cups take the stress out of preparing for holy communion mass. These easy-to-use, sanitary, long-lasting cups have revolutionized holy communion mass, making them a great solution for any church service. Now you can unwind and focus on the spirit of communion.
