NOCH Priest and Altar Servers, HO (1:87), Punainen, Valkoinen

»Country Delights are Just so in Vogue! With this year’s NOCH Focus Theme »Country Delights«, we are pleased to offer you a lot of new and very attractive figures. The Figures Set »Priest and Altar Servers« contains six Altar Servers and one Priest, which are all in scale 1:87 (scale H0) and hand-painted. On every model railway layout a scene with a church can be shown. Matching this, there is now a priest who holds the mass. Also his »assistants«, the altar servers are not forgotten. They wear the typical gown, consisting of a red skirt, white gown and collar. One altar boy holds a large cross and also the censer is used in the many masses. The priest wears a liturgical garment and matching stole around his neck while holding the mass. An altar boy (from the latin »ministrare« - to serve) or server is a liturgical assistant in the Roman Catholic Church. The Codex luris Canonici dated 1917 requested in Can. 813 that the presence of a altar boy was compulsory in the celebration of the Holy Mass (source: Wikipedia).
