The use and benefit of the Lord's Supper is why it was offered every holy day and when anyone desired it...

The people are also advised about the dignity and use of the Sacrament [The Lord's Supper], about how it brings great consolation to anxious consciences, so that they, too, may learn to believe God and to expect and ask from Him all that is good. This worship pleases God. ...Because the Mass is for the purpose of giving the Sacrament, we have Communion every holy day, and if anyone desires the Sacrament, we also offer it on other days, when it is given to all who ask for it.
~BOC, AC, XXIV, 7-8, 34
