Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. A flat metal container used to carry communion to the sick.

Answer: Pyx

Not your typical Corelle Ware.

2. The outer garment worn by the priest celebrating Mass.

Answer: Chasuble

The chasuble looks like a poncho, and comes in different colors that correspond to Holy Days or liturgical seasons.

3. A linen cloth used to clean the vessels used during communion.

Answer: Purificator

On wash day they use Bounty!

4. Holds the hosts distributed at communion.

Answer: Ciborium

The ciborium looks like a chalice with a lid, and is made of a valued and strong material.

5. A room where vestments, church furnishings and sacred vessels are kept.

Answer: Sacristy

The sacristy is an area used to prepare for the Mass.

6. A flat round piece of unleavened bread used as Eucharistic bread.

Answer: Host

This bread does not contain yeast, so it does not rise. It contains wheat flour and water.

7. A book of prayers used during the Mass.

Answer: Sacramentary

The sacramentary does not contain Biblical readings, which are in the lectionary.

8. A square piece of cloth that the priest places beneath the chalice and bread during Mass to collect crumbs or spills.

Answer: Corporal

The corporal is also used underneath the ciborium or pyx when they are in the tabernacle.

9. A special receptacle where the Eucharistic bread is kept between Masses.

Answer: Tabernacle

Tabernacles are unbreakable, immovable and dignified.

10. A book that contains all the scripture readings, including the Gospels.

Answer: Lectionary

This book only contains Biblical readings. It is not the same as the sacramentary.
