Cloths used to cover and decorate the altar. At First Lutheran we have a set of paraments in each of the liturgical colors for use in the appropriate season. A set includes a colored altar fall or antependium, ambo scarf, burse, and veil. White cloths include the fair linen cloth which goes on top of the colored altar cloth, corporal, purificators, pall, credence cloth.
