Communion Vessels
The plate and cup shown on the table serve Communion; vessel forms vary among congregations.
Key points
- The vessels serve the church's sharing of bread and cup.
- Look for: A plate and cup on the Communion table.
- An illustrative traditional Anglican parish drawing on Church of England guidance. Anglican churches range from evangelical to Anglo-Catholic, and their buildings, terminology, Communion practice, music, and imagery vary. This arrangement is an example rather than a universal Anglican plan.
- The worship leaders and Communion area are at the top of this study plan. The model's front is a viewing direction rather than a required compass orientation. Furniture positions and building plans vary by congregation. The drawing is schematic: object sizes, materials, decorative details, and exact coordinates are illustrative rather than surveyed measurements or denominational requirements.
