4.2: The Main Parts of a Catholic Church

Cards (4)

  • Tabernacle
    Where the consecrated bread is kept after Mass and contains the real presence of Christ
  • Crucifix
    Inspires Christians to have love and respect for Christ as it reminds the suffering Jesus endured
  • Altar
    Where the bread and wine are offered to God during mass. The Father then transforms the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ to strengthen a believer's faith when receiving them
  • Lectern
    Where Bible reading are given. Readings from the Old Testament remind Christians how God guided his people and the New Testament reminds Christians of Jesus' actions. The presence of Christ is strong here
