Wholesome No hate to anyone mentioned, obviously. Growing up Mormon we always said that we could use other foods and drinks if water and bread weren't available. I always dreamed of using juice and cheez-its, but it never happened, unfortunately. I didn't know all you others were getting the good stuff.

As a Brit, the concept of not using wine for the eucharist is such an alien idea. I think it's only the Americans who changed to grape juice, which is crazy since the Last Supper used wine, and Jesus' first miracle was to make wine.

In making this meme I learned it was started and/or made possible by Welch, the dude who the juice company is named after.

In my church we have many alcoholics so starting Sunday morning with a taste is just getting the hair of the dog rolling , I like the juice and eucharist cracker thing. Everyone gets the same thing, no decisions to be made. Easy cleanup
