The Significance of the Catholic Altar:

In the Catholic faith, the altar holds profound significance as the place where the sacrifice of the Mass takes place. It is here that bread and wine are transformed into the body and blood of Christ, and where the faithful gather to participate in the sacred mysteries of the Eucharist.

As such, the altar is not merely a piece of furniture but a sacred space where heaven and earth meet, and where the faithful encounter the living presence of God.
