The Church Hall of the Moravian congregation at Herrnhut, Czech Republic





The Church Hall of the Moravian Church congregation in Herrnhut, Czech Republic. 
Note that in this worship space there is neither a pulpit nor an altar - but only a table which is usually but not always always covered with a green cloth. Green is the color of life

The table is to be a worktable. It is used variously as a reading table, the lectern for holding sermons - and it is used for the Holy Communion liturgy, celebrating the real presence of Christ, and as a location for holy baptism.

In addition, everything in the church was normatively painted white because the Moravians of old, and sometimes currently, consider white to be the color of happiness.
