Ite Missa THE LOGO The grey letters stand for the worldwide fraternal society which is subordinate to the Catholic Faith and the content of all publications. The content - the Faith and the patron saint - is more important than the fraternal society. The logo becomes more easily readable due to the difference in grey tones. The black letters stand for the organization itself. The design seeks to express something of the organization’s core values, showing ourselves fully “in the light”.

  • Thurifer at Missa Cantata
    THURIFER AT MISSA CANTATA GENERAL AND HISTORICAL NOTES The Thurifer (Th) has the privilege of bearing the thurible during Mass and of the office of incensing the inferior ministers and the laity. The word thurible is derived from thus, which is Latin for incense. It is generally thought, that the thurible used by the Jews was very similar as employed at Mass now, that is, with three chains, though it is unknown if the Jewish thuribles had a cover. The thurible is also considered to be a liturgical object of great value in its symbolic use, as the thuribles made by the Jews were made of solid gold. This was perhaps done so as to imitate the Altar of Incense (on which incense was burnt three times a day), that stood outside the Temple, which was made of gold plate over wood. The history of the use of incense is very ancient, dating back to earliest ages. Incense was widely used by both the Jews in the Temple ceremonies, as commanded by Almighty God Himself, as well as by the pagan religions. In ancient times, burning incense was also used as an air freshener in countries under Roman or Asian influence; it too was used to incense the guests as a mark of respect at banquets. In fact incense was so widely used, that God Himself commanded the Jews, that the incense compound made for use in the Temple ceremonies, was to be used expressly for the Temple (i.e., God), under the penalty of death, so that it could not be used for secular functions.

Eucharist comes from a Greek word that means “thanksgiving.” Each week, we offer our thanks to God for all the things we have in our life and all the ways God loves us. The Eucharist is not something that only a priest does; it is something that we do together. It takes all of us here to help make the Eucharist happen.

  • GLOSSARY of the LITURGY the University of St. Francis
    GLOSSARY OF THE LITURGY The University of St. Francis. Accident: In relation to the liturgy, an “accident” refers to the appearance of a thing which can appear as another thing. In the case of the consecrated vs. unconsecrated host, both “appear” as flour and water mixed together and baked. However, after the consecration, the “accident” may appear the same but the “substance” has changed. (See Substance). Acclamations: These are short phrases of praise to God. The Gospel Acclamation occurs before the Gospel using either Alleluia or a different phrase during Lent. The Memorial Acclamation is proclaimed by the assembly following the Narrative Institution during the Eucharistic Prayer. Acolyte: A liturgical minister appointed to assist at liturgical celebrations. Priests and deacons receive this ministry before they are ordained. Lay men may be installed permanently in the ministry of acolyte through a rite of institution and blessing (903, 1672). Adoration CCC 2096, 2628, 1083: The acknowledgment of God as God, Creator and Savior, the Lord and Master of everything that exists. Through worship and prayer, the Church and individual persons give to God the adoration which is the first act of the virtue of religion. The first commandment of the law obliges us to adore God (2096, 2628; cf. 1083). Agnus Dei: “Lamb of God” An ancient hymn to Jesus Christ, it is usually sung during the fraction rite prior to the distribution of Holy Communion. (John 1:29) In the new Roman Missal, it reads “Behold the Lamb of God, behold him who takes away the sins of the world. Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb.” GLOSSARY OF THE LITURGY Page 1 The University of St.

  • Saint Peter Church Guidelines for Altar Servers
    Saint Peter Church Guidelines for Altar Servers BEFORE MASS 1. Please arrive 15 minutes before Mass and check your name off on the ministers’ list at the Ushers’ table by the Baptismal Font. • If you are substituting for someone, please write your name on the ministers’ list so that we know you are a substitute. Write your name by the name of the server you are substituting for. • If you are late and someone has already dressed to take your place, that person will serve. • If the Mass has already started and the priest has no server or only one server on the altar with him, please dress and assist. 2. Dressing to serve (in the Servers’ Sacristy): • Servers who are boys will wear a black cassock and a white surplice, which hang together in matching sizes. First, put on the cassock and button it from top to bottom. Choose a size which doesn’t drag as you walk, and covers your legs, except your shoes. Then put the matching surplice on and check to make sure that it is centered on your shoulders. After Mass, hang the cassock neatly on its hanger and button the top button. Then hang the surplice neatly over the cassock. • Servers who are girls will wear an alb – a white, full length garment. Make sure the alb fits you well – that is, it is not dragging and only the tops of your shoes are showing below the alb. Tie alb with a cord. Flax colored cords are worn for most Sundays, white cords for special feasts – Christmas, Easter, etc.
