Worshiping as a community is important in all Christian denominations. Attend worship service weekly and, depending on your denomination, on holy days of obligation, such as Christmas, Easter, and Ash Wednesday. Christians typically attend weekly worship services on Saturdays or Sundays. For groups including Anglicans, Catholics, and Orthodox Christians, worship centers around Holy Communion. Through this ritual, Christians remember the Last Supper and Christ's sacrifice for humanity. In other denominations, such as Baptists and Quakers, community worship is less structured and centers on Bible readings, sermons, and music. Sacraments are rites of passage that help you confirm your faith and share it with your community. Most Christian traditions recognize at least 2 sacraments: Baptism and Holy Communion. Baptism often occurs soon after birth; First Communion in many denominations happens around age 7. While nearly all Christians celebrate these core sacraments, some traditions recognize several additional rites of passage. Catholicism, for instance, recognizes the additional sacraments of Confession (also called Penance or Reconciliation), Confirmation, Marriage, Holy Orders, and Anointing of the Sick. While you receive some sacraments, such as Baptism and Confirmation, only once, others are celebrated regularly. For instance, after your First Communion, you receive Holy Communion every time you go to church. If a Scripture passage or church teaching is confusing, never be afraid to seek clarity. Needing to learn more and asking questions doesn't mean you're unfaithful. Rather, it shows you want to deepen your faith, and it can help you gain knowledge and wisdom. You can also ask your priest or minister questions about your faith. For instance, if you want to know more about a passage in the Gospel or sermon, ask about it after the service. If you find teachings on Holy Communion confusing, ask about your tradition's beliefs and why different denominations hold unique views. to put your faith into practice. Your church can likely connect you with a range of service opportunities, such as at a soup kitchen, shelter, or nursing home. Community service can help you put Christ's teachings into practice. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus calls for Christians to feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, clothe the naked, shelter the homeless, visit the sick, visit the imprisoned, and bury the dead. Churches typically offer retreats every now and then for members of the community to pray, reflect, and learn more about their faith. Retreats often involve trips to spiritual sites and activities such as meditation, singing, journaling, arts and crafts, and group discussions. Christian schools, youth groups, and other organizations also host retreats. Ask your priest or minister or another leader at your church about upcoming retreats and how to participate.

summary: Go to church regularly. Receive the sacraments according to your denomination's traditions. Seize learning opportunities, such as Bible study and Sunday school. Volunteer Attend spiritual retreats to deepen your relationship with God.

Although sugar is fairly gentle, it is still an abrasive exfoliant. This means it tears away the dead skin, and can irritate sensitive areas such as the face. Most people rarely have issues, but overuse or improper use can leave your face raw or painful. Abrasive scrubs are not recommended for people with acne or broken blood vessels on their face. Brown sugar is the softest type of sugar, making it the best choice for the sensitive skin of your face. Granulated white sugar contains less liquid and tends to feel a little grittier. It can work, but it's not recommended if you have sensitive skin. Mix 2 tbsp (30mL) sugar with 2 tbsp (30mL) vegetable oil. Alternatively, use honey instead of oil. Honey is mostly sugar, so it provides additional exfoliation. Safflower oil and olive oil are common options. For more advice on which oil to pick, refer to the body scrub section above. If your face is dirty, clean it with mild soap and warm water. Otherwise, just make sure that your skin is completely wet, so the sugar scrub will not feel too abrasive. Wash your hands as well to avoid introducing contaminants onto your face. If necessary, tie back your hair to keep it away from your face. The sugar scrub will rinse off in the shower, but avoiding sticky hair in the first place is the way to go. Scoop out 1-2 tablespoons (1530mL) of your sugar exfoliant onto your fingertips. Place this on the location you want to remove dead skin, and being scrubbing in a circular motion. Do this gently for 2-3 minutes to remove the dead skin. While you're scrubbing, you should feel no pain or discomfort. If you experience pain or tenderness, you are rubbing too hard with the sugar. Wet the softest washcloth you have under warm water, then wring it out. Lay it over your face and gently rub off the sugar. Repeat until clean. Use a clean cloth to pat your skin dry. If you are looking to soften your skin, you can finish up the process by massaging a moisturising lotion into your skin. Do this for 1-2 minutes, and your skin should be silky smooth and soft.

summary: Know the risks. Start with brown or white sugar. Mix with oil or honey. Wash your face. Tie back your hair. Scrub your skin with the sugar. Clean off the sugar. Dry and moisturise your skin.

The first thing you need to do is sterilize the scissors you will be using to snip off the skin tag. You can do this using a few different methods. The most thorough way is to use an autoclave (sterilization device) but you may not have one readily available and they can be expensive to buy. Cheaper alternatives include thoroughly cleaning the scissors with some rubbing alcohol and a cotton ball, or boiling the scissors in a pot of water for ten minutes. Wash your hands with an anti-bacterial soap and carefully place the sterilized scissors on a clean towel and leave to dry. Avoid touching the sterilized blade from this point on. This will extend the skin tag and give you more space to get the scissors as close to the base of the tag as possible. Before you do this, you can numb the area with a little ice to minimize pain, however removing the skin tag is no more painful than a pinch, so this is probably unnecessary. Position the scissors slowly and carefully to ensure that you will snip the skin tag as close to the base as possible, without cutting the surrounding skin. Once you are in position, snip quickly to minimize pain. It should feel like a quick pinch. Instead of using sterilized scissors, it is possible to use a nail clippers to remove the skin tag instead. The nail clippers may be easier to use if the skin tag is on the back of your neck, or anywhere hard to reach. Just be sure to sterilize the nail clippers using one of the methods outlined above before using. The base of the skin tag will probably bleed a little after cutting, but this is normal. Take care to disinfect the area before covering, as the last thing you want is to develop an infection. Use a little rubbing alcohol or iodine on a cotton ball to do this. Cover the area with a skin-colored band-aid and allow the skin tag at least 24 hours to heal. If any signs of infection should develop, such as swelling, tenderness, redness or oozing around the wound, consult your doctor immediately.
summary: Sterilize your scissors. Pinch it with tweezers and pull taut. Take your sterilized scissors and snip off the skin tag. Clean the wound and cover with a band-aid.
