Most Christians are quite acquainted with communion wafers, but not everyone knows how to make them.
How Communion Wafers Came Up?
Although this is hardly surprising since before and up until recently, the creation of the wafer was limited to a select few.
During history, the church was the one who picked out special bakers for each parishand this baker was the only one allowed to create the wafer. Moreover, a special oven was designated for this ritual and thus, it was kept sacred.
As time passed, the secrecy faded and the tradition of creating the wafers also changed.
Today, there are several large manufacturers that create these wafers. They are no longer exclusively made by nuns or special bakers from the church.
Although there are plenty of manufacturers in this industry, there are still companies that hold a monopoly when it comes to being a supplier for these church wafers.
The fact is there is one company that supplies over three fourths of the churches found in the United States.
The history and significance of these holy wafers cannot be underestimated. Even though most non Christians might not be familiar with them, there is no doubt that it is an essential part of the faith as well as the ceremony of these churches.
For a Christian, participating in a Holy Communion and taking in communion wafers symbolizes something far beyond the tastelessness of this holy bread, it symbolizes the faith that he has on his Lord and remembers the Lord’s undying love for his children.
