Relating to or characteristic of communion; involving shared participation or spiritual connection.
From 'communion' (from Latin communio, sharing) plus -al (adjectival suffix). Primarily theological terminology.
'Communional worship' emphasizes shared experience rather than individual faith—and churches emphasizing 'communional' theology (like Orthodox Christianity) tend to be more ritualistic and less individualistic than Protestant churches.
