Thank you. Quite familiar with the Didache and how every Christian church (not just Catholics) refer to it as confirming their communion practices.

Of course “Eucharist” in the Greek is “thanksgiving” and refers to when Paul recounts “gave thanks.” The exact word is not in the NT, however calling communion or The Lord’s Supper, thanksgiving (Eucharist) is accurate given the literal Greek word.
