A couple Sundays ago we were doing communion by intinction, and I was given a piece of bread that broke into three pieces! Well, I held on to two of them, and dipped one of the three into the juice and ate it. Then when I got back to my pew I quickly ate the other two pieces, hoping nobody had noticed. Nobody tackled me; nobody arrested me. But do you suppose I only got one third of Christ that way? ;-) “Just so you know, if you come to my church, you will not be tackled or arrested for taking communion.”
