    -the Eucharist must be led by and ordained priest and is celebrated every week.
    In orthodox churches anyone can receive the Eucharist (even infants)and the consecration takes place behind the Iconostasis to symbolise the mystery element of the Eucharist.

    -Celebrate it once a month.
    -Quakers and Salvationist do not celebrate the Eucharist at all. They believe that rituals can distract people from true worship of God.
  20. 20Where is the Eucharist available-Belief in the ‘real presence’ has led to a devotion to the ‘Blessed Sacrament.
    At the end of mass some consecrated hosts are reserved in the Tabernacle.
    This is why Catholics genuflect in the direction of the Tabernacle.

    -Benediction is a prayer in front of a monstrance containing a consecrated host
  21. 21LecternPlatform from which the readings are proclaimed. It needs to be visible and suitably amplified. There are usually 4 readings: Old Testament, Psalm, New Testament, Gospel.
    Christians believe the Bible is the Word of God so Christ is present when the scriptures are read.
  22. 22Altar- Place of sacrifice
    - Gifts of bread and wine are offered to God
    - During the ‘Words of Institution’ Jesus’ sacrifice is made present in the Altar.
    - the altar is on a raised area called the sanctuary so it is the focal point.
  23. 23Tabernacle-Some consecrated hosts are reserved here so the presence of Christ remains in the Church even after mass has ended.

    -Stations of the cross help facilitate prayer in Lent and Holy Week
    -A lady-chapel creates a more intimate space for prayer.
  26. 26Church architecture since Vatican II in 1960s-Many built in a cruciform shape facing east (Jerusalem)
    -Altar was in the East Wall(during consecration priest faced East, back to congregation), this was changed to help them feel more involved, by moving the altar forward.
    -Churches have more inclusive layouts such as circular or semi circular.
  27. 27Altar or TableAltar= Catholic’s believe Christ is truly present in the Eucharist so his sacrifice is made real during consecration.
    Altar is a place of sacrifice and so is a proper name.
    Table= However Protestants refer to it as a table as they think of it as a memorial of the Last Supper, it is a reenactment rather than participation in the sacrifice. The Community is gathered to share a meal like a family (aka the Lord’s supper)
  28. 28Cross, Crucifix or Risen ChristCrucifix= Catholic Churches usually have a crucifix as it shows the suffering Jesus endured as a sacrifice for humanity.
    Cross= Some prefer an empty cross to emphasise that death is not the end. The resurrection is more important as it is a sign of new and eternal life.
    Risen Christ= some prefer an image of the risen Christ in the shape reminiscent of a cross. It emphasises the resurrection over the crucifixion, the power of life over death.
