Police have arrested a man they say broke into a Queens church and stole a communion chalice.

Theodore Kurplewski, 20, was charged yesterday with burglary and criminal mischief.

Investigators say the Queens resident stole the chalice from Saint Helen's Roman Catholic Church in Howard Beach last month.

Police were able to recover the chalice.
