No sorry, I have attended plenty of churches that have no altar at all.
Quakers have no altar.
Mennonites have no altar.
House churches have no altar.
Charismatics have no altar.
A true Christian is not going to worship an image in stone or on a canvas, whether that image is Jesus or his mother or Kermit the Frog. A true Christian worships the Lord is spirit and in truth.
No idol worship for me!!!
Regarding Charismatics, there are even Roman Catholic Charismatics so you'll have to be a bit more specific. Remember, some Charismatics deviate so far from the pale of orthodoxy as to be considered something other than Christian.
