Correct me if I'm wrong:
During communion, Catholics believe in transubstantiation meaning there is a *moment* in which the physical bread and wine turn into the body and blood, while keeping the physical characteristics of the former.
LCMS Lutherans believe that the true body and blood is in and with the bread and wine, always. There is no magical moment of change; the bread and wine are not just symbols of the body and blood, they are both things (bread/body wine/blood), always.
Some other denominations believe communion is symbolic in form and meaning, the bread and wine are only reminders.
And (again, correct me if I'm wrong) Catholics believe that not only the faith in Christ's death and resurrection but good works are also required to be saved; that the doctrine of the Catholic Church can be decided on by pope, the church and various traditions within the church along with scripture; and the submission to the authority of the pope to be a "true" member. (I found this info on the lcms.org website)
