Why is the catholic priest able to change the bread and wine into the body and blood of Jesus?
Catholics believe in the doctrine of transubstantiation, which teaches that during the Eucharist, the bread and wine are transformed into the actual body and blood of Jesus Christ, while still retaining the appearance of bread and wine. This is based on the belief in the priest's power to act in persona Christi, or in the person of Christ, during the sacrament of the Eucharist.

How do you administer Communion in the Episcopal Church?
After a priest consecrates the bread and wine, then it is distributed to the people. First, the priest gives the bread. The parisioners wait. Then, the priest comes with the chalice and people either sip wine from the chalice or dip their bread into the wine. In between people sipping from the chalice, the priest wipes the lip of the chalice where the last person sipped. Some people believe it is more sanitary to dip the bread into the wine (rather than sipping from the cup after someone else).
