Giving wine and Prosphora is how the Orthodox Church traditionally performs the Holy Communion Mystery. Prosphora is the name of the bread that is baked specifically for communion (and it is also the Greek word meaning "offering".) To complete the prosphora for the Liturgy, seals or stamps are needed. The symbolic image of Christ's body offered to the people is called prosphora, an act that first occurred during the Last Supper.
