I'm curious. What do you have to say here about communion being led by a layperson in the church? Should it just be from the pastors/elders??

Besides being contrary to 1 Cor. 4:1, the use of laymen may lead communicants to doubt that the body and blood of Christ are truly distributed and received. In one church growth congregation, where visitors are encouraged to join without instruction or examination, the layman said, "Take eat, this represents the body of Christ." The layman, in this case, not only changed the meaning of the words but changed the actual words of Christ to suit his Zwinglian understanding.
