Questions about liturgy: Is the adoration of the Eucharist on Holy Thursday held in a monstrance or in a tabernacle?

AI Briefing

• – The adoration of the Eucharist on Holy Thursday is traditionally held in a monstrance, and the tabernacle is not used for adoration on this day. The tabernacle is used for the Blessed Sacrament to remain in, but on Holy Thursday, the Blessed Sacrament is brought out of the tabernacle and adored in a monstrance. The reason for this is that Holy Thursday is the day of the Last Supper and the Institution of the Eucharist, and the adoration of the Eucharist is a way of commemorating this event.
