Description

BACKGROUND

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a packaging container for bread and wine for Communion, and more particularly, to a packaging container for bread and wine for Communion that includes a structure capable of preventing the spread of infectious diseases and reducing the time taken to distribute the bread and wine.

2. Discussion of Related Art

Conventional Communion cups are no different from typical cups. Wine is poured into cups with an open upper portion, and bread for Communion is separately distributed to hold Communion.

Specifically, a plurality of cups filled with wine and a plurality of pieces of bread are placed on a tray member as illustrated in FIG. 1A and distributed to participants of Communion. As illustrated in FIG. 1B, the participants each take one of the plurality of cups filled with wine and drink the wine.

However, in this case, since the wine and bread for Communion are exposed to the air, there is a risk of the spread of an infectious disease among the participants during Communion.

In order to address such a problem, a separately packaged container illustrated in FIG. 1C is provided to each participant in some cases, but there is a problem in that a large amount of waste is generated after Communion.

Also, in order to address the above problem, a disposable Communion cup that is pre-filled with wine and has a plastic cover adhered thereto using an adhesive as illustrated in FIG. 1D has been released. However, there is still a problem in that a large amount of waste is generated after Communion, and there is a problem in that the wine may splash out of the cup in a process of opening the plastic cover adhered using the adhesive.

Therefore, there is a need for technology that can address the above-mentioned problems of the related art.
