Church
A church is where Christians go to worship. Traditional churches have the same architecture. The nave is the main part of the church where all the people who come to worship sit. The aisles are the sides of the church. The transept, if there is one, is an area that crosses the nave near the top of the church. This makes the church shaped like a cross, which is a symbol of the belief that Jesus died on the cross. The chancel leads up to the altar at the top of the church. The altar is in the sanctuary. The word “sanctuary” means “sacred place”. The altar is usually at the east end of the church. People in the church sit facing the altar. Most churches have a tower or steeple, usually at the west end.
