The Blessed Sacrament is the consecrated host (circular piece of unleavened bread) which is the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ, second person of the Trinity. Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament is a ceremony during which the Blessed Sacrament is set by the priest into a monstrance for adoration. The monstrance is a blessed, golden container used to hold the Blessed Sacrament. In its center is a circular space where the Blessed Sacrament, in a glass case, is set. Around this center is gold, usually sculpted into long thin pieces that radiate like light from the center where the Blessed sacrament is. This container for the Blessed Sacrament is held upright on a golden pedestal, which is part of the monstrance. During the ceremony called Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, the priest exposes the host by setting it in the monstrance, and the monstrance is set on the altar in the church. Thus people can come and kneel and adore Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament, which is held exposed in the monstrance.
