bagga Report post Posted March 11, 2015 a pyx is the comtainer that holds holy communion hosts that are given to people unable to attend church. a burse holds the pyx. my sister in law goes to nursing homes and give communion. she had an el cheepo burse and asked me to make her one. it must be made of leather and have a leather strap to hang around the neck. the strap is a leather shoelace.
