New liturgy in the United Reformed Church of Britain in 2003 reveals a depth and breadth of meaning that did not seem to be reflected in our congregation's practice of the Lord's Supper or Holy Communion. The liturgy showed that Communion is more that a remembrance of Christ's death; it's an encounter with the risen Lord in all his fullness and salvation power. In order to develop our understanding and enhance our experience of Communion, I designed a six session experiential training course. This paper is a descriptive evaluation of that course using understandings of the meaning of communion from a theological perspective from the Reformed tradition and how meaning is acquired in sacred meals from a sociological and anthropological perspective. Faculty advisors for this project were Dennis T. Olson, Charles T. Haley Professor of Old Testament Theology, Chair of the Department of Biblical Studies, Princeton Theological Seminary, Revd Dr Peter McEnhill, former tutor of Systematic Theology at Westminster College, Cambridge, UK and a minister in the Church of Scotland, and Revd Dr Susan Durber, Principal of Westminster College, Cambridge, UK.
