Ericka,

Yes, that is right. Protestants have the sacraments of baptism and communion 
and Catholics have seven sacraments.
For catholics, most sacraments signal a time of life.
Yep, I agree that something does not have to be a sacrament to be sacred.

Now I'll write about the other sacrament on a new subject line.

I don't think it explicitly says do this every Sunday or every Sabbath. To 
me when he says do this in remembrance of me at the last supper it means 
every time the believers come together in worship.  I recall when I got 
married in the Catholic Church we had communion as a part of the wedding 
ceremony. I don't recall call if that is something required or chosen. 
Ashley, perhaps you can remind me which two, but I know that one difference 
between Catholics is that protestants generally have two sacraments one 
being baptism and the Catholics have seven. To me, things don't have to be a 
sacrament to be sacred.

Yes Lutherans have communion every Sunday. It never made sense to me growing 
up in the UCC church that we had it one Sunday a month. Everybody said and 
pews and we had to wait until everyone received the wine to drink it, then 
wait to have the wafers passed around everyone until we could eat the wafer. 
I'm all for unity, but really I've saw nothing sacred about that. It seems 
like just a formality. Lutherans to go up to the rail most of the time. 
There are times like Christmas and Easter where are there are just so many 
people it is not good traffic flow to do that so everyone comes up to the 
front of the church in online and then files back to the pew on the outer 
Isles. Every church does it a little different but yes in those cases it is 
by intinction.
