Lavabo towel definition | What is a lavabo towel?

The lavabo towel is an altar linen cloth that holds great relevance within the ritual of the Mass.

The priest, by drying his hands with the lavabo towel during the liturgical celebration, on one hand, shows humility and service, remembering the gesture of Christ in washing the feet of his disciples.

Furthermore, it also teaches the faithful the importance of cleanliness as a method to seek the purity and spiritual preparation necessary to consecrate the bread and the wine, which will become the Body and Blood of Christ.
