Censers in the Catholic Church
A censer, also known as an incense burner, is a fireproof metal container, usually made of metal or silver, used to burn incense during.
Parish or processional censers consist of two parts: a body, generally spherical, where the incense is placed, and a chain system for performing the incensation.
The incense burned in the censer symbolizes the prayers of the faithful rising to God, as smoke rises to heaven. It also serves as a symbol of respect for the Eucharistic elements.
Use of incense during Mass
The Mass and liturgical celebrations are a fundamental part of the life of a parish and the faithful who attend it. Burning incense is a very important moment during parish celebrations. Incense is typically used in:
- The entrance procession to purify the temple and the attendees at the Mass.
- The proclamation of the Gospel as a sign of reverence for the Word of God.
- The Eucharistic Prayer while the offering of the bread and wine is made as a sign of offering to God.
- The elevation of the Host and the chalice after the consecration.
In addition to these moments, incense is also typically burned:
- In the blessing of the Blessed Sacrament.
- At funerals as a sign of respect for the deceased.
- In the liturgical and brotherhood processions of Holy Week.
