It’s the main difference between communion for Catholics and other Christian denominations.

The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod parish I sometimes go to takes the Real Presence of the Eucharist very seriously...
...stating exactly that it's the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ every single time someone takes Communion at its alter rail.

No "Eucharistic Ministers", either.

or worshipping the elements nor believing in the continuous resacrifice of the mass nor believing that the pastor somehow pulls Christ down from heaven and places Him on the altar. Just simple belief in Christ’s words “this is”
