ABSTRACT:
A communion dispenser comprises a small open-top cup adapted for containing juice or wine and provided with a substantially flat upper edge or flange. The cup is closed by a two-part lid within which communion bread in the form of an edible wafer is received. The top layer of the lid is first removed to access the wafer and the lower part of the lid is later removed so that a juice or wine within the cup can be taken. The upper and lower layers of the lid preferably comprise folded-over portions of the same piece of paper-foil or paper-plastic material such that a pull-tab or lift-tab on the upper layer is first grasped to peel back the upper layer and reveal the wafer, after which the top layer is pulled farther upwardly, carrying with it the attached lower layer whereby the wine or juice can be taken. The upper and lower layers are heat-sealed to one another and to the edge of the cup in a manner so that they can be conveniently and successively peeled away from the cup.
