In some churches the "offering plate" or "offering basket" is placed upon the altar, as a sign that the offering is made to God, and a sign of the bond of Christian love.
Di beberapa Gereja, "piring persembahan" atau "keranjang persembahan" diletakkan di atas altar untuk menunjukkan bahwa persembahan itu ditujukan kepada Allah, dan merupakan tanda ikatan kasih Kristiani.
