A Dedham man is facing breaking and entering charges after being found lying in an area behind the altar of the Cathedral of the Holy Cross in the South End Wednesday morning, surrounded by candles, a bottle of sacramental wine, and a container of the eucharistic wafers, Boston police said.

Jorge Jose Guevara, 26, was arrested on a charge of breaking and entering with intent to commit a felony, police said. Guevara was found on the floor inside the front storage area behind the altar surrounded by several battery-operated candles, the wine, and the wafers, police said.
