Liturgical use

The host pyx is used in the sacristy to store unconsecrated hosts before Holy Mass and to reserve remaining consecrated hosts. The 17 cm diameter accommodates an adequate number of hosts for Sunday celebrations in medium-sized parishes. The IHS monogram — abbreviation of the name of Jesus — clearly identifies the sacred purpose of the container. Also suited to portable use for distributing Communion to the sick.
