Among the benefits of having access to church services online is that seniors and homebound folks don’t have to travel, and maneuver wheelchairs, walkers and such, amid parking lots and crowds of people.
And they can stay in their pajamas, not fuss with dressing up.
Some would argue a drawback: they’re missing out on coffee and donuts in the fellowship hall when the service ends, or going to local restaurants for brunch with friends.
“Community” and “socializing” are important to varying degrees, depending on personality types…(neighbors could meet together in one person’s house, and eat potluck as they criticize discuss the preacher’s sermon).
But I’m not one of them. Okay, I confess to eye-rolling, sighing, occasional head-shaking.
However, I don’t wait till after the service if I’m hungry. I “do” church in the recliner ‘pew’, and eat whatever I want (leftover pizza with pepperoni; pound cake; potato chips).
No one was bothered a’tall today, by me crunching Cheeze-It crackers (a perfectly respectable “communion wafer” substitute).

We are often at home for church services and daily we have communion. We use crackers for bread and small amounts of inexpensive wine for wine.

Yep, any kind of cracker is good–a friend of mine prefers “fish” ones! I like old-fashioned Welch’s grape juice, but have some Stella Rosa Berry in the fridge–it’s bubbly and Very Low alcohol. Taking communion daily is an excellent practice for health and general wellbeing…and now that you’ve mentioned it, I need to get back in the habit! Blessings to you😇
