That question is only a theological discussion that has raged on for centuries.
It depends on which Church, some believe it becomes Jesus' body and blood upon consecration, others at other times. In this case yes Harper put Jesus in his pocket (RCC I think believes not just that the bread and wine ARE the body and blood, but that Jesus is fully present as well). That's why for some it's pretty serious.
