Altar of repose

The hosts intended for the Good Friday service are not placed in the tabernacle, as is usual, but are left on the altar, while the priest says the postcommunion prayer.

[3] The container is then carried in solemn procession under a canopy to a place of reservation somewhere in the church, or in an appropriately adorned chapel.

The Blessed Sacrament remains in that temporary place until Holy Communion on Good Friday.

At the Good Friday service (The Celebration of the Passion of the Lord), the Blessed Sacrament is available for Communion.

After that service (with the altar of repose being dismantled), it remains available as viaticum for the dying in a less conspicuous location, such as a locked cabinet in the sacristy.
