Offertory 7/26/2020
August 2, 2020 I 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time
The Pastor is IN... Last week, we started discussing the main vessels used at
Mass and how their meaning and symbolism points beyond
themselves and to the truth that at every Mass we join the ranks
of the heavenly hosts in that eternal banquet feast of The Lamb
in the Heavenly Kingdom. Here are a few other items you see
used during Mass.
Cruet: A small vessel used for containing the wine and water
required for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Two are always
employed. The General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM)
directs that they should be made of glass. This is the most
suitable material because its easily cleaned, and the
transparency obviates danger of confounding the water and
wine. In shape nothing is prescribed, but the vessels should
have a good firm base on which to stand securely and a fairly
wide neck so as to admit of being easily cleansed. The cruets
are also used for a priest's ablution after the Offertory, and the
ablution of the chalice after Communion.
Lavabo Bowl: from the Latin lavabo (I shall wash). In the third
century there are traces of a custom of washing the hands as a
preparation for prayer on the part of all Christians; and from the
fourth century onwards it appears to have been usual for the
ministers at the Communion Service ceremonially to wash their
hands before the more solemn part of the service as a symbol of
inward purity.
Thurible or Censer: The term ‘censer‘ comes from the Latin
thus (incense). This is also where we get the name ‘incense‘. In
Latin, it was also referred to as thymiaterium, incensorium, and
fumigatorium. The thurible is a metal container, usually a vessel,
equipped with a cover provided with openings. Inside, on a thin
layer of embers, is incense surrounded by grains. This causes the
thurible to spill around a fragrant and aromatic smoke.
The thurible is always accompanied by a further smaller
vessel, the incense boat, which accommodates the incense
stock. The thurible is used in some of the key moments of the
Eucharistic celebration: the beginning, before the reading of
the Gospel, during the Offertory, and at the moment of
consecration. During the funeral, the priest spreads the smoke
of the thurible on the coffin containing the corpse to bless and
purify it. Similarly, representations of the Virgin Mary and the
saints are censered.
Incense: from the Latin incendere (to burn). The use of
incense in religious worship started more than 2,000 years
before Christianity even began. The use of incense in China is
documented before 2000 BC. Trade in incense and spices was a
major economic factor between east and west when caravans
traveled the Middle Eastern Incense Route from Yemen through
Saudi Arabia. The route ended in Israel and it was here that it
was introduced to the Roman Empire. Religions in the western
world have long used incense in their ceremonies. Incense is
noted in the Jewish Talmud and is mentioned 170 times in the
Bible. The use of incense in Jewish worship continued long after
the beginning of Christianity and was a definite influence in the
Catholic Church’s use of it in liturgical celebrations. The Church
sees the burning of incense as an image of the prayers of the
faithful rising to heaven; the smoke from the incense is symbolic
of the mystery of God Himself.
Sanctus Bells: derive their name from being rung first during
the Sanctus [Holy, Holy, Holy Lord…]. They have been rung as
part of the celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in the
Church for more than 800 years. The reason for ringing bells is,
first, to create a joyful noise to the Lord and second, the Church
bells ringing signaled those not able to attend Mass that
something supernatural was taking place.
The use of bells in the Church dates back to the fifth century,
when Saint Paulinus, the Bishop of Nola, introduced them as a
means to summon monks to worship. In the seventh century
Pope Sabinianus approved the use of bells to call the faithful to
the Mass. The Venerable Bede, an English saint of the eighth
century, is credited with the introduction of bell ringing at
Requiem Masses. By the ninth century the use of bells had
spread to even the small parish churches of the western Roman
Empire. It wasn’t until the thirteenth century that outdoor tower
bells began to be rung as "Sanctus bells" during the Mass.
Some people think the use of the Sanctus bells is obsolete, as
the Mass is in the vernacular and the celebrant now usually
faces the congregation. The people can now hear and see, the
reasoning goes, thus negating the need for an auditory signal.
But the purpose of Sanctus bells’ is not just to "wake up" the
congregation to the consecration of the Eucharist. Sounding the
bells at the moment Christ becomes present in the Eucharistic
species of bread and wine is an audible sign of our joyous praise
and thanksgiving.
I pray this opportunity to delve into the different vessels and
items used at mass helps us participate with heartfelt honesty
and devotion when we attend the Table of the Lord. Next week
we will take a look at the sanctuary and its elements that point
to the gift of the Holy Eucharist and the power of the Word of
God in our midst.
St. Edward, pray for us. Treu in Christus, faithfully in Christ, Fr. Rod

In the Gospel, Jesus says: “There is no
need for them to go away; give them
some food yourselves,” and taking the
five loaves and two fish, he blest them
and gave them to the disciples to feed
the crowd.
Know that your gift to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul goes
directly to help those living in poverty and touches many lives
just like the loaves and fishes.
If you would like any more information about the work of
St. Vincent de Paul or would like to help us in our mission to
serve others in Ashland, please contact
