But it is NOT a sacrament in protestant churches. They do not believe in transubstantiation, so why deny them of doing it in “remembrance of me [Christ]”?
We were guests in the country and Japan was a good friend and ally of our country. I told them to watch what the Prime Minister of Japan did when he was visiting the United States and out flag was presented and national anthem was played. Or what the president of the United States did in the same situation (sadly, this wouldn't apply today because our imposter in chief has no love or respect for this country).
They did exactly what I suggested to my kids-- stand respectfully with their hosts while the anthem is played but don't join the singing or salutes.
I'd follow the same rule with communion when I am a guest at other church services-- it shows respect for your hosts, including the other members who might feel resentful about your taking communion service which is reserved for those who are members.
Lutherans believe it is indeed a sacrament. In the Small Catechism, under "The Sacrament of the Altar," we teach:
What is the Sacrament of the Altar?
It is the true body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ under the bread and wine, instituted by Christ Himself for us Christians to eat and to drink.
got news for you ... it is the Lord’s Table, not the pope’s.
it is most certainly considered a sacrament in my protestant church, as is baptism.
