"For they were our examples, and in many and various ways they all pointed to the one sacrifice which we now commemorate."

Commemorate: 1) to serve as a memorial or reminder of: The monument commemorates the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
2) to honor the memory of by some observance: to commemorate the dead by a moment of silence; to commemorate Bastille Day.

Sounds like a Protestant...

“The majority of Protestants believe that His body is really absent.”

As a Baptist, I believe that “Worthy recipients, when outwardly partaking of the visible elements in this ordinance, also receive them inwardly by faith, truly and in fact, not as flesh and body but spiritually. In so doing they feed upon Christ crucified, and receive all the benefits of his death. The body and blood of Christ are not present physically, but spiritually by the faith of believers in the ordinance, just as the elements themselves are to their outward senses.”
