Random information on the term “Holy Communion”:

Sacramental bread, also called Communion bread, Eucharist wafer, the Lamb or simply the host (Latin: hostia, lit. 'sacrificial victim'), is the bread used in the Christian ritual of the Eucharist. Along with sacramental wine, it is one of two elements of the Eucharist. The bread may be either leavened or unleavened, depending on tradition.

Catholic theology generally teaches that at the Words of Institution the bread’s substance is changed into the Body of Christ (transubstantiation), whereas Eastern Christian theology generally views the epiclesis as the point at which the change occurs.

Bread was also used in Jewish Temple ritual as well as in the religious rituals of Mandaeism, Mithraism,: 161–162  and other pagan cultures like that of ancient Egypt.: 66–68 

The word host is derived from the Latin hostia, which means “sacrificial victim”. The term can be used to describe the bread both before and after consecration, although it is more correct to use it after consecration (prior to consecration, the term altar bread is preferred).

Random information on the term “MASS”:

The Mass (Latin: missa), a form of sacred musical composition, is a choral composition that sets the invariable portions of the Eucharistic liturgy (principally that of the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, and Lutheranism) to music. Musical Masses take their name from the Catholic liturgy called “the Mass”.

Most Masses are settings of the liturgy in Latin, the liturgical sacred language of the Catholic Church’s Roman Rite, but there are a significant number written in the languages of non-Catholic countries where vernacular worship has long been the norm. For example, there have been many Masses written in English for a United States context since the Second Vatican Council, and others (often called “communion services”) for the Church of England.

Masses can be a cappella, that is, without an independent accompaniment, or they can be accompanied by instrumental obbligatos up to and including a full orchestra. Many masses, especially later ones, were never intended to be performed during the celebration of an actual mass.
