{{summary | text=A shrine, from the Latin [[scrinium]] (box) is a term describing a "sacred" place dedicated to a "holy" person or object or [[relic]]. In Christianity, shrines are commonly used in worship in [[Roman Catholicism]] (especially in [[South America]]), [[Eastern Orthodoxy]] and [[Oriental Orthodoxy]]. These shrines are often criticized by [[Protestant]] Christians who feel they can represent the worship of idols.}}
