ALL ABOUT "BENEDICTION"
REV. E. ). MCCARTHY, Pm. o.
March "a, 1914

Non-Catholics who follow our
church programs in the papers
must often wonder about Benedic-
ton. 1t must seem that whenever
we are not having Mass, then we
are having Observation-Disclosures
that is.
Why not drop in sometime and
see for yourself? It's a beautiful
service. First we have fifteen or
twenty candles lighted on the altar
and, if possible, a few sprays of
flowers. Then the priest. wearing
a cope "a heavily Ornamented
cape), takes the Blessed Sacrament
out of the tabernacle, puts it in a
monstrance and sets it ON a throne
for the alteration of the cOngre-
cation.
That was a pretty big sentence
back there. so we had better ex-
plain. The Blessed Sacrament is.
according to our belief, Jesus
Christ, all of Him. body and soul,
under the appearance of bread
in this case. disc of unleavened
bread about three inches in diam
eter. To a Catholic. understand. il
is not bread. but Jesus. No Cath
Olic adOres bread, for that would
be idOlatry; Catholic adores
Jesus Christ; so that it can never
he said that we are idOlaters.
The tabernacle is a metal safe.
resting i'm the center of the altar
In this are kept the golden vessels
which contain the Blessed Sacra-
ment. These are within the taber-
nacle all day long. so that mem
bers of the congregation can come
in at any time and converse with
Jesus.
The mOnstrance is golden con-
tainer, used to enshrine the Bless
ed Sacrament when it is enthrOned
before the people. You'll know il
as soon as you sea it.
Now with the Blessed SacTa-
ment enthrOned. the choir or the
people sing hymn of praise while
the priest puts incense into the
censer lin which there is a live
coaD. He then swings the censer
before the Blessed Sacrament in
token of alteration. just as the
Jews of the Old Testament used TO
burn incense before God in the
temple ritual.
Another hymn. a second incens-
ing. a Latin prayer sung aloud,
and the priest assumes a long silk
scarf over his shoulders. Now he
approaches the altar. takes the
into his hands, and
Dlesses the people with it.
There is a third hymn of praise
md the service is over. But what
could be more peaceful than this.
he blessing of Jesus Christ, de-
Scending on our troubled lives.
with it foretaste of joy
everlasting!
Peace with Victory
