sacramental bread
Consecrated church offering
Sacramental bread is bread used in Christian religious ceremonies, particularly the Eucharist or Communion, where it represents or becomes the body of Christ depending on denominational belief.
Also called communion bread or the host, it varies in form across traditions—unleavened wafers in Catholic and some Protestant churches, leavened bread in Eastern Orthodox and other Protestant denominations.
The priest broke the sacramental bread and distributed it to the congregation.
