Esoteric sign

Sign seen in a protestant churchyard in downtown Columbus:

"Saturday 5:00 Informal/ Communion"

Someone want to explain to me what, exactly, is informal about receiving Communion? (Sometimes the sign says Holy Eucharist)
I guess if you don't see it as Catholics do (that is, the actual presence of God in the Bread and Wine, which become and Body and Blood...spare me the transfiguration is a crock emails, please!), then it could be 'informal'. And we all have seen plenty of Catholics who dress as nicely for Mass as they do for an afternoon at the 'Shoe in Columbus. But at least we never go out of our way to note that informality is acceptable!

If anyone could explain to me how Communion/ Eucharist could be "informal" in any way, please let me know.

Haha. I am not going to comment on transfiguration, since it's really not that big of an issue for me. But, I don't think that Protestants take Communion any less seriously than Catholics. That being said, I read the sign completely differently. Instead of thinking that the Communion was informal, I thought they meant that the service was informal, and that it included Communion. This to me would imply a less "structured" service - maybe a devotional and some songs - and then, according to the sign, Communion. So, in that case, I don't disagree with the sign, they were just trying to describe the service.

Ah. That makes sense to me. Thanks for the clarification. (I'm so glad I have smart friends!)
