The sanctuary is the physical room where mass is normally celebrated. It is comprised of the nave which is where the congregation sits along with transcepts in churches built in a cruciform shape. The chancel area is where the high altar, communion table and blessing of the elements occurs. Frequently there is a communion rail where the parishoners kneel to receive the communion elements.

Important values of the holy mass?

If you are referring to the Catholic Church, I have knowledge on what is valued. My family is Catholic, and I attend Mass regularly on Sundays. Mass is, in general, a celebration that honors the Blood and Body of Christ. The Roman Catholic Church established the Holy Sacraments (acts of reverence instituted by the Church in the name of God to represent visible signs of His grace). The Sacrament celebrated in Mass is called the Holy Eucharist (Those who completed Holy Communion preparation are able to receive the Blood and Body of Christ, the bread and the wine), which takes place at the near-end of the Mass and is the most valued. Other important values would include the praying of the Our Father and of the Nicene Creed as well as the Gospel reading.
