Bread of Freedom

Bread of slavery -- and liberation
    Bread of freedom -- and subjugation

  Consider the Matzo: It's flavor-less and flat
    ~ Jews eat it and rejoice for all that

Hi Gershon, we also have unleavened yeastless bread in the Greek Orthodox Faith but we have it every Sunday for those taking communion, and for those who choose not to, communion is taken as and when one feels a need to take it,or on special religious holidays. The unleavened bread is in a basket for anyone and everyone that goes to visit the church during services or just passing wanting to just sit and pray quietly. Blessings, Jennifer.

I think they're called 'wafers' over here. Wafer and wine, then you can shine! :) gw
