Excerpt from The Student's Prayer-Book: The Text of Morning and Evening Prayer and Litany With Notes

It is with the first and third of these that we deal in this book.

Our Lord Himself ordered the two sacraments, Baptism and Holy Communion, to be administered, and the very earliest Christian records Show that the Lord's Supper was the central part of the service which Christians held on every Lord's Day.

Sunday Services. - We should expect then to find that the history of the Administration of the Sacraments would take us farther back into the primitive life of the Church of Christ than the history of Common Prayer. And, indeed, we have an interesting account of a Sunday service with its administration of Holy Communion given us by Justin Martyr in the second century, and from his time onwards the descriptions of the Communion Service become frequent and full, and the service itself more and more elaborate.
