Blessed Sacrament is a devotional
term used in the Roman Catholic
Church to refer to the eucharistic
species (the Body and Blood of
Christ). Consecrated hosts are kept
in a tabernacle after Mass, so that
the Blessed Sacrament can be
brought to the sick and dying
outside the time of Mass.
The Eucharist is celebrated daily
during the celebration of Mass,
the eucharistic liturgy (except on
Good Friday, when consecration
takes place on Holy Thursday, but is
distributed during the Mass of the
Presanctified, and Holy Saturday.
Catholics may
receive Communion during Mass or
outside Mass, but "a person who
has already received the Most
Holy Eucharist can receive it a
second time on the same day only
within the eucharistic
celebration in which the person
participates", except as Viaticum
The elements of the Eucharist,
sacramental bread (leavened or
unleavened) and sacramental wine
(or by some grape juice), are
consecrated on an altar (or a
communion table) and consumed
thereafter.

CARE AND CONCERN
2. HONOR – ALWAYS KEEPING ONE’S
PROMISES
3. RESPECT – ACCEPTING ANOTHER
PERSON’S STRENGTH AND WEAKNESSES
4. LOYALTY – BEING COMMITTED TO
ANTOHER PERSON.
5. SENSITIVITY – LOOKING OUT FOR THE
NEEDS OF OTHERS
6. FORVIGENESS – LETTING GO OF HATE
AND ANGER
HOW CAN I DEVELOP THIS ATTITUDE?
I can develop this “love” by practicing the method
of seeing the good things in people’s hearts. The
concern I give whenever my sister is sick, shows
that I am capable of giving concern and care.
Furthermore, I can develop more of this by simply
caring.
I can develop this through telling the truth. I won’t
say a promise unless I’m ready to make the
promise come true.
I can develop this attitude by having a sense of
“knowing” about the things we should accept
about a person. Because everyone deserves to be
accepted whatever flaws they may have.
I can develop this attitude by being committed to
the Lord despite all the obstacles and all the
hardships that I experienced.
I can develop this attitude by always being there in
times when my friends and family need my help. I
can be sensitive to others by being careful of my
words, in order to avoid hurting anyone.
