As a pastor I've seen parishioners crave the Sacrament, especially as they near death. One of the blessings during these COVID days is that we've not only had every Sunday communion, but weekday communion services in order to provide smaller services to meet size of gathering restrictions. It's the Body and Blood of Jesus, the medicine of immortality for body and soul. The great thing about being Lutheran is that we confess the Lord's Supper as the Lord's doing and the Lord's gift to us. People are not to be coerced or forced to the table, but certainly encouraged to receive. I know as a pastor I definitely hunger and thirst for the Sacrament weekly, especially in these COVID days. I've had about all the 'virtual' church I can stand. It is a privilege and comfort to receive my Lord's very Body and Blood and to know that He actually bids me to come.
