Tabernacle
The tabernacle, the
repository for the Blessed Sacrament, is
constructed of gold-plated cast bronze and
echoes the architectural features of the
Cathedral. The throne upon which the
tabernacle rests is made in a similar design and
of the same materials as the altar. On the
walls of the chapel are scriptural verses from
John 6:51: "I am the bread which has come down
from heaven" and from Matthew 28:20, "I am with
you always even unto the end of the age."
Each passage proclaims the enduring presence and
love of Christ. Two bronze lamps burn
continually within the chapel, signifying the
abiding presence of Christ in the Blessed
Sacrament.
