The rite includes the blessing with holy water, proclamation of the Word of God, invocation of the saints, and the prayer of dedication. The altar and walls are then anointed with sacred chrism, signifying that the church is a holy place and that the altar represents Christ Himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ceremony continues with the burning of incense, lighting of candles, and the celebration of the Holy Eucharist\u2014the first Mass on the newly consecrated altar. From this moment, the church becomes a sacred space dedicated permanently to prayer, the sacraments, and the gathering of the Christian community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>St Augustine Seeta Parish is a Catholic parish located in Seeta, along the Kampala\u2013Jinja highway in Mukono.
