Presumably this refers to the LDS sacramental meal, analogous (at least in some ways) to what other churches may call "the Eucharist", "Communion", "Holy Communion", "the Mass", "the Divine Liturgy", "the Lord's Supper", "the Table of the Lord", etc., etc. In many Christian traditions, this is only one of many Sacraments (e.g. Roman Catholicism recognizes seven Sacraments: Baptism, Eucharist, Reconciliation (also known as Confession, or Penance), Confirmation, Marriage, Holy Orders (Ordination), and Anointing of the Sick (including Extreme Unction, or "Last Rites") (see e.g. this webpage.

- Hmm, they probably could be combined for a while, but I'm thinking this would be a mistake and would cause some major problems in the future. I think we should make them distinct. I'm not really sure what the full differences are myself. At the very least, sacrament is probably a lesser known term for this to most of the world, and having both names would be useful in that regard (I agree about the links from each other with some explanation about the relation or such).

- Oh, actually, this category is just about the sacrament in general (not necessarily LDS sacrament, but the dictionary definition or such, which might include the LDS sacrament). I don't know—this one was a little ambiguous, and I had been thinking about deleting it. category:Sacrament Hymns, however, should be for the LDS one (that's what I was talking about in my last post; I thought I was in that article, for some reason), I think, but the description still needs to be updated to reflect that.
