    I did I felt that I should, and I wanted to. Now I belong to the Bible Students, who won't kick your spiritual hiney for doing so, or shun you for dibbing and dabbing that stuff out of weekness.

    At every Memorial that I'VE attended, I have never seen anyone partake -

    Does anyone, on here, intend to next month? legitimately or otherwise?

    I never actually partook during the passing over around of the emblems but I did get to have the leftovers. Seriously! My uncle was the elder who provided the bloodwine (homemade!) and my aunt baked the unleavened fleshbread for the ritual. I don't know, maybe they thought it would be disrespectful to throw it away.

    My brother partook when he was little...he feels fine. He isn't a believer but constantly says anyway that he's going to rule with Jesus one day.

    Good, that means that you were being led to believe that you should be doing it. Every christian should be celebrating this, it isn't for just a set group. To be like Christ, you do like Christ, and that includes Passover/emblems or communion, or whatever you want to call it.

    With passover/memorial coming soon, I can't stress the importance of Matthew 28 enough, do as Jesus commanded his apostles, among other things, break the bread and drink the wine.
