Pulpits
A pulpit is a raised stand for preachers in a Christian church. It comes from the Latin 'pulpitum' meaning platform or staging. It is raised well above the surrounding floor for audibility and visibility, accessed by steps, with sides coming to about waist height. Many have a canopy known as the 'abat-voix', a sounding board to project the preacher's voice to congregation.
