  • Procedures for Reverencing the Tabernacle and the Altar Before, During and After Mass
    Procedures for Reverencing the Tabernacle and the Altar Before, During and After Mass Key Terms: Eucharist: The true presence of Christ in the form of his Body and Blood. During Mass, bread and wine are consecrated to become the Body and Blood of Christ. Whatever remains there are of the Body of Christ may be reserved and kept. Tabernacle: The box-like container in which the Eucharistic Bread may be reserved. Sacristy: The room in the church where the priest and other ministers prepare themselves for worship. Altar: The table upon which the bread and wine are blessed and made holy to become the Eucharist. Sanctuary: Often referred to as the Altar area, the Sanctuary is the proper name of the area which includes the Altar, the Ambo (from where the Scriptures are read and the homily may be given), and the Presider’s Chair. Nave: The area of the church where the majority of worshippers are located. This is where the Pews are. Genuflection: The act of bending one knee to the ground whilst making the sign of the Cross. Soon (maybe even next weekend – August 25-26) , the tabernacle will be re-located to behind the altar. How should I respond to the presence of the reserved Eucharist when it will now be permanently kept in the church sanctuary? Whenever you are in the church, you are in a holy place, walking upon holy ground. Everyone ought to be respectful of Holy Rosary Church as a house of worship and prayer. Respect those who are in silent prayer.

  • Bowing to Tradition.Pdf
    2012 EPIK Episode 1 Bowing to Tradition Lauren Fitzpatrick (Yeongwol Elementary School) One thing I didn’t realize about myself until I came to Korea: I’m a waver. When somebody says hello to me, my first instinct is to hold up my palm and wave in response. I blame my Midwestern upbringing. When I first met my students, I felt like the Queen, constantly waving back to them as I walked down the hallway. During my first week at Yeongwol Elementary School in rural Gangwon-do, my co- teacher gently pulled me aside. “Lauren teacher,” she said carefully. “Please, do not wave at the students. I think it confuses them.” Now I was confused. What was wrong with waving? My co-teacher explained that things were changing in Korea. The traditional way of greeting an elder is to bow respectfully. But the world is growing smaller; cultural boundaries are not always easily defined. Now, instead of bowing, students often wave - especially to the native teachers. “I worry that we are losing our traditions,” my co-teacher said. “I see my daughter waving to her friends, and many students call the EPIK teachers by their first names. That is not Korean culture. They should always call you Lauren Teacher and bow. If you bow to them, they will remember to do it to you.” To be honest, it felt kind of…weird. I still wasn’t used to bowing to anyone, let alone to children. It felt awkward, as if I was doing it wrong. My biggest fear was inadvertently insulting the principal by not bending enough at the waist or doing something inappropriate with my hands.

    Newsletter Archives Namaste: The Significance of a Yogic Greeting The material contained in this newsletter/article is owned by ExoticIndiaArt Pvt Ltd. Reproduction of any part of the contents of this document, by any means, needs the prior permission of the owners. Copyright C 2000, ExoticIndiaArt Namaste: The Significance of a Yogic Greeting Article of the Month - November 2001 In a well-known episode it so transpired that the great lover god Krishna made away with the clothes of unmarried maidens, fourteen to seventeen years of age, bathing in the river Yamuna. Their fervent entreaties to him proved of no avail. It was only after they performed before him the eternal gesture of namaste was he satisfied, and agreed to hand back their garments so that they could recover their modesty. The gesture (or mudra) of namaste is a simple act made by bringing together both palms of the hands before the heart, and lightly bowing the head. In the simplest of terms it is accepted as a humble greeting straight from the heart and reciprocated accordingly. Namaste is a composite of the two Sanskrit words, nama, and te. Te means you, and nama has the following connotations: To bend To bow To sink To incline To stoop All these suggestions point to a sense of submitting oneself to another, with complete humility. Significantly the word 'nama' has parallels in other ancient languages also. It is cognate with the Greek nemo, nemos and nosmos; to the Latin nemus, the Old Saxon niman, and the German neman and nehman. All these expressions have the general sense of obeisance, homage and veneration.

  • Proper Postures and Gestures of the Lay Faithful in the Church Ivana T
    Proper Postures and Gestures of the Lay Faithful in the Church Ivana T. Meshell, Director of Adult Faith Formation Deacon Dave Illingworth has done for us some important research on the proper postures and gestures of the lay faithful in the Church. It is of great benefit for us as laypersons striving to be faithful Catholics to know about these postures and gestures, why we use them, and how we can benefit from them. For this reason, I am proud to feature Deacon Dave’s excellent work as part of my usual weekly bulletin articles. We would welcome your questions and conversation about this information so that together we might all come to a better understanding of them and be able to more fruitfully put them into practice. His reflections begin as follows: In the celebration of Mass we raise our hearts, minds and voices to God; yet we are creatures composed of body as well as spirit and so our prayer is not confined to our minds, hearts and voices, but is expressed through our physical bodies as well. We pray best as whole persons, as the embodied spirits God created us to be, and this engagement of our entire being in prayer helps us to pray with greater attention. During Mass we assume different postures: standing, kneeling, sitting; we are also invited to make a variety of gestures. These postures and gestures are not merely ceremonial; they have profound meaning and, when done with understanding, can enhance our personal participation in Mass. In fact, these actions are the way in which we engage our bodies in the prayer that is the Mass (United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB.com, Posture).

Welcome and Passing of the Peace [Greet one another with “Peace be with you” in the language of your choice. Accompany your verbal greeting with South East Asian noncontact greeting gestures: Thai “wai”, (cf. “Namaste” of Southern Asia). Demonstrate the gesture by joining your hands together in front of you in a praying gesture held anywhere between chest to forehead level, the higher you position your hands the greater the respect/deference you offer.

  • International-Multisensory-Paper
    a. How were you addressed when you entered the restaurant? Did you need to make reservations? How long was the wait before you were seated? The restaurant I went to was Thai Farm Kitchen, 416 Church Avenue in Brooklyn. My cousin and I were immediately greeted with a wai, a form of a Thai greeting, when we entered the restaurant. “A ​ wai is a form of communication and a customary greeting in Thailand where palms of the hands are briefly pressed together in a prayer-like gesture with fingers pointing upwards, usually close to the chest, and the head slightly bowed. The wai is a sign of respect and is used instead of the traditional Western handshake or a wave. It can be a way of saying thanks, showing understanding of a person or situation, or a polite way to apologize” (Willan, 2018). This gives an example of how Thai culture is high context because the waitress used nonverbal communication to greet and welcome us. The ​ ​ waitress was very friendly and welcoming, greeting us with a huge smile. I did not have to make a reservation. There was no wait, we were seated immediately. b. What are the cultural differences you notice? Using your five senses of taste, touch, sight, smell, & sound describe some of the cultural differences that you are not accustomed to in comparison to All-American restaurant or restaurant chains. For example, one can describe but not limited to the sights in the restaurant décor, odors from unusual foods, and sounds from music. One should use all five-senses in this cultural experience.
