Which term refers to the sacrament involving the Body and Blood of Christ?

• A. Crucifix
• B. Crucifer
• C. Diocese
• D. Eucharist

Answer: (D)

The concept being tested is the name of the sacrament in which believers receive the Body and Blood of Christ. The correct term is the Eucharist, a sacred rite also known as Holy Communion or the Lord’s Supper. It involves the consecration and sharing of bread and wine, symbolizing or making present Christ’s Body and Blood depending on tradition. The other terms refer to things that are not the sacrament itself: a crucifix is the cross representing Jesus’ crucifixion, a crucifer is someone who carries the cross in processions, and a diocese is a geographic district governed by a bishop. Thus, the term that designates the sacrament is the Eucharist.
