Symbolism and unity are the key elements in the design of altar furnishings. The use of shape, position and wood color help illustrate Gods love and promise of salvation. All altars are made of solid Honduras Mahogany maple and purple heart wood. A list of all the furnishings designed by Hogan Studios would include: Altar, ambos, cross and figure work, presider chairs, ambry, tabernacle, candle stands, including the pascal and both the adult and infant baptismal fonts.
