World Communion Sunday seeks to celebrate Christian unity and cooperation. Pastor Dr. Hugh Thompson Kerr is noted as the founder of World Communion Sunday.

World Communion Sunday was first celebrated at Shadyside Presbyterian Church in Pennsylvania in 1933. It is celebrated annually on the first Sunday in October.

All who eat and drink without discerning the body, eat and drunk judgement against themselves - 1 Corinthians 11:29
Paul the Apostle says that when one partakes of Holy Communion, they should be mindful of their brothers and sisters. Discerning the body means to take note of your fellow believers within your congregation.
