I just made them up. Yes, I took you at your word. I did not google them. That's actually an ego-boost. I thought my writing would have been too shabby to fool anyone.

Most Protestant churches practise open communion , although many require that the communicant be a baptized Christian.
The official policy of the Episcopal Church is to only invite baptized persons to receive communion. However, many parishes do not insist on this and practise open communion. Catholics should never take Communion in a Protestant church , and Protestants including Anglicans should never receive Communion in the Catholic Church except in case of death or of "grave and pressing need".
Such a generous theology exists, and within the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church does not ordinarily allow a Catholic to receive communion in a Protestant church , since it does not consider Protestant ministers to be priests ordained by bishops in a line of valid succession from the apostles, although Moravians, Anglicans and some Lutherans teach that they ordain their clergy in.
Rather, in their belief in the sacrament, Protestants bring forth their faith in Jesus and in God and the forgiveness of sins. It is more of a symbolic act commemorating the Last Supper, the Passion and its promised redemption. Communion is one of two rituals practiced by Protestants ; the other is baptism. Protestants believe that Jesus made his sacrifice on the cross and simply follow the tradition of the sacrament in memory of the event, recalling its symbolic importance in the life of Jesus.
Churches also differ in how often they receive the Eucharist. The United Methodist Church affirms the real presence of Christ in Holy Communion , but does not hold to transubstantiation. The church believes that the bread is an effectual sign of His body crucified on the cross and the cup is an effectual sign of His blood shed for humanity. As of the year , the state of the doctrine of purgatory in Anglicanism was summarized as follows: Purgatory is seldom mentioned in Anglican descriptions or speculations concerning life after death, although many Anglicans believe in a continuing process of growth and development after death.
In the Catholic Church, the veneration of Mary , mother of Jesus, encompasses various Marian devotions which include prayer, pious acts, visual arts, poetry, and music devoted to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Popes have encouraged it, while also taking steps to reform some manifestations of it.
The central statement of Catholic faith, the Nicene Creed, begins, "I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. This makes possible also the practice of eucharistic adoration. Church teaching places the origin of the Eucharist in the Last Supper of Jesus with his disciples, at which he is believed to have taken bread and given it to his disciples, telling them to eat of it, because it was his body, and to have taken a cup and given it to his disciples, telling them to drink of it because it.
A monstrance , also known as an ostensorium or an ostensory , is the vessel used in Roman Catholic , Old Catholic and Anglican churches for the more convenient exhibition of some object of piety, such as the consecrated Eucharistic host during Eucharistic adoration or Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.

I did hear that some Protestant ones believe in it but that it is temporary. I guess that means that after the Service it goes back to being just bread. I do not know if that is true. Transubstantiation is a uniquely Catholic doctrine, although I hear it is an allowable opinion in the Eastern Churches.
It is to be distinguished from belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, the what doctrine, as opposed to transubstantiation's how doctrine. Thomas Aquinas. Thomas Aquinas?
We know that the bread and wine are changed by the Holy Spirit into the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of our Lord but not the mechanism by which this change is accomplished. At least, that is what I have garnered. The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? But to us you freely gave spiritual food and drink and life eternal through your Servant. And I desire the drink of God, namely His blood, which is incorruptible love and eternal life.
Rather, Jesus Christ our Savior, having been made flesh by the Word of God, had both flesh and blood for our salvation. So, likewise, we have been taught that the food which is blessed by the prayer of His word, and from which our blood and flesh by transmutation are nourished, is the flesh and blood of that Jesus who was made flesh. And both of them drink health to men: wine for the body; blood for the spirit.
He likewise, when mentioning the cup and making the new testament to be sealed in His blood, affirmed the reality of His body. And this bread becomes by prayer, a sacred body, which sanctifies those who sincerely partake of it. When we are thus nourished by these things, we also, my beloved, shall truly keep the feast of the Passover. Consequently, he that dwelleth not in Christ, and in whom Christ dwelleth not, doubtless neither eateth His flesh nor drinketh His blood, although he may press the sacrament of the body and blood of Christ carnally and visibly with his teeth, but rather doth he eat and drink the sacrament of so great a thing to his own judgment, because he, being unclean, ahs presumed to come to the sacrament of Christ.
The priest standing there in the place of Christ says these words but their power and grace are from God. I'm pretty sure that the Anglicans believe in the real presence, not just Catholic Church and orthodox. And since it was vaquely mentioned, I thought I'd clarify that Lutherns believe in consubstantiation. I think that means something like half of it's Jesus and half of it's not.
