Communion (Christianity) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Communion (Christian)
The bond uniting Christians as individuals and groups with each other and with Jesus Christ, is described as communion. ==Origin== The term is derived from Latin ''communio'' (sharing in common).〔(American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language )〕 The corresponding term in Greek is κοινωνία, which is often translated as "fellowship". In Christianity, the basic meaning of the term communion is an especially close relationship of Christians, as individuals or as a church, with God and with other Christians. This basic meaning of the word predates its Christian uses. In Ancient Greek, κοινωνία could apply to a business partnership, to fellowship of life in marriage, to a spiritual relationship with divinity, to comradely fellowship between friends, to a community or society.〔(Robert Porter Lynch & Ninon Prozonic Papanicolas: How the Greeks Created the First Age of Innovation )〕
