It is usually made of a gold or silver or some other nonabsorbent metal that does not break easily. The bishops of a local region interpret what may or may not be used to make a worthy chalice. The chalice is blessed by a bishop of a priest before it is used at Mass” (Elliott, 113). When dressed, the following items are placed on top in the following order: the purificator, the paten, a large unconsecrated host, the pall, the chalice veil, the burse containing the corporal with the opening facing the short side of the veil. The Chalice is kept in the Sacristy or on the credence table in St. Anne’s chapel. If picking up the chalice, do so by holding the veil or with a glove on as it is sacred.
