Reserved sacrament. Bread (occasionally wine) consecrated at the Christian
eucharist and kept for devotion (see
BENEDICTION) and for
communion, especially for the sick. The practice is similar in the
Orthodox Church, except that the reserved sacrament consists of the host with a drop of consecrated wine on it, and there are no extra-liturgical devotions.
