Ahh finally we see the source of your confusion. You see, your church teaches you that this business about valid ordination is so. We don’t answer to your church, nor do we look to it for it’s opinion on this matter. We consider our priests validly ordained and we thus believe that our bread and wine is properly confected.well, not to be a snot or anything… but you can belive something IS whatever, but that doesn’t make it so…
In order for the Real presence to be real and present, one has to have a valid priest to confect the host… a validly ordained Catholic priest …
Some Lutheran churches (very rare) may have this because their pastor may be a former priest… but most do not…
I hope this clears up your confusion.
