A Monstrance or Ostensorium is used to display the host used in the Mass, Lord's Supper, Communion or Eucharistic meal. The Catholic believes this wafer of bread turns into the actual body of Christ when consecrated during the Mass. Ostensorium means, in accordance with its etymology, a vessel designed for the more convenient exhibition of some object of piety. (This image in no way is making any sort of comparison between the body of Christ and that of Pinky D.)
