This tutorial is on the tools a thurifer uses, as well as the basic steps one must know to help one more fully serve the liturgical duty of thurifer to the best of one's ability. Each parish priest has his own preference on certain aspects of each servers duty, and as such a few details may slightly differ from those shown in the video above. Make sure to talk to your parish priest regarding any concerns or questions you might have regarding anything stated or shown in this video.
As a retired Floridian attempting to return to fond memories of being an alter server your video has been a tremendous aid. Thank you!
As a altar server for around 4 years I started doing incense 1 year ago and I looked at your video when I first started becoming a thurifer thanks for teaching us I appreciate it now I'm planning to become a Catholic MC but I gotta keep serving until I'm 16 so 4 more years and then I gotta start learning how to become an MC
I cheat. I have the inner bowl that holds the charcoal lined with several layers of aluminum foil. When it becomes crusty from incense residue I change out the foil. On Sundays I make sure that I have a few minutes to spare and I use tongs from the kitchen and light the charcoal using the gas range. The usually late arrivals have gotten used to seeing me running through the kitchen and parish hall heading for the narthex.
Excellent training videos. Thank you.
We used to use a quarter cake and a Swan Vestas match! Worked well. I miss the smell of incense and Beeswax
Those coals are self lighting all you need to do it touch the ridges with a lighted taper. It is much easier and safer that way.
I really want one of those just to swing it around while listening to con clavi con dio
You and me both...
You can buy them for a very good price on Amazon. Just look up swinging incense burner or thurible.
@@DominicNJ73 I already have 😎
Bravo! Great explanations!
I was an altar server and Covid ended my ministry as an altar server. Some of the best memories of my life though. God willing I can become a sacristan and eventually a deacon once my life becomes a lot more calm. It’s busy with school and work lol
Nice tutorial 👌
Excellent video, using this for training our thurifers. 1 critique, charcoal is not lighted, it is "Lit."
I really miss the liturgy. I loved being an altar server an Sacristan
Can u do video of cleaning it and how to make it look new plz
I don't know how I got here, but what is with places associated with churches (actual churches or schools, etc.) Looking like this? I swear live been in that room like five times
Panem de ceolo praestitite eis. I'm going for the humeral now!
How do I clean a heavily sticky Thurible?
Thank you
I’ve seen churches build a charcoal fire in a small grill then put one of the red hot coals in the thurible before the service. Seems easier.
3:34 eh pal that's no peace sign
Why is it some charcoal emit small "explosions" which chip pieces off the charcoal - so the frankincense resin tends to drip off the sides?
It's so they light quicker. The charcoals that pop/explodes like the one shown are known as quick-lighting charcoals. They have a accelerant in them which starts going off when you touch a flame to it (it kind of smells like gunpowder to me, but I don't actually know what the accelerant is). If this was a normal charcoal, you would need to heat it in a fire or another heat source (like the burner on a stove).
@@andrewsmith9785 It sure like gunpowder (which is likely what it is). I guess my point is there has to be emphasis on quality-control. Sometimes a small chip can fly into altar cloth or table cloth. Not to mention, the resin drips thru the break in the coal which is a waste.
I'm still 8 but I am an altar server for 5 years
i hope someone can answer this ... can the charcoal or the blessed incense be reused and what happens to the incense does it melt or evaporate and once it's done does the charcoal and the burnt blessed incense go into the container of water ?
Both the charcoal and incense burn away to ashes unless you dump them into a container of water to put them out. We used to simply go outside and dump the burned charcoal in the street near the curb.
this tutorial vs Tridentine mass
Greetings.. please tell me your thoughts on smudging with sage? Thank you and good health to all.
You can use sage as an incense, but smudging isn’t ok to do. The whole idea of smudging as the person above me said is pagan.
Is that aluminum foil above the charcoal? Is that necessary?
It's there to not get the thurible dirty
@3:12
How much is it ?
Where did you buy that at?
Any church supply store will carry that particular incense burner but they are pricy. You can get affordable prices ones on Amazon or from Autom dot com.
I found a whole lot of used ones at multiple different vintage stores for around $50-120.
hi
Where do you think the Catholics got this idea from?
The bible
@@mathieuconklin3146 they stole this, the alter, the Chalice and alter candles from,,,,the pagans.
@@rubiconoutdoors3492 not true
@@marcelfrancis6783 yes. Its high level Ceremonial magic. What is it? Its spell casting. Chalice represents the woman. The only thing missing is the knife. Incense represents air and fire, water/wine. Salt or bread earth they stole all of it. DRUIDS HAD ALTERS FIRST. JESUS WALKED THE EARTH WOTH NOTHING.
@@rubiconoutdoors3492 it's from the bible
Single chain 😫
I know right
The title of the channel doesn’t match the single chain
Do you really think God cares about the number of chains? Good grief, y'all are delusional.
@@DominicNJ73 In Liturgy it’s always good to offer the best we can, as it is a foretaste of the eternal heavenly liturgy. The thurible of 4 chains, has 3 outer (holy trinity) and a centra chain representing the oneness of the trinity.
It’s not an issue to have of or use a single chain thurible, I just prefer seeing a chained thurible being used. That’s all.
We should give God the best we have. If we only have one chain and can’t afford any other ,that’s the best.
6:20 So you can have your hands free to "help" Father with any "tasks"
HELPkfhsj
Whats the point of this? I thought god had enough of this in Isaiah 1:13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
Which bible do catholics read ? Help me out.
Dude, there’s no need to be angry. God was upset with Israel’s vain worship at that time, but incense continues to be joined at the hip with worship, especially prayer. Right now the angels and saints’ prayers are joined with incense in the presence of the Lamb who was slain but now stands.
We read the Holy Bible translates from the original Greek and Hebrew. Unlike prots we have 2000 years of history and tradition with scholars far more superior then your pastor posers like Kenneth Copeland.
Hi Romeo. I've never heard this before, and it's understandable to wonder what it means in light of the Church's use of incense. One of the reasons we use incense is because in Revelation it says the incense represents our prayers rising to heaven. I think context may also be important regarding Isaiah 1:13 regarding why God was saying this. God Bless you!!!
You do realize that God in the book of Exodus commanded incense be burnt right?
This is what a man made religion looks like that assumes the power of God and becomes the arbiter of salvation.
Adonis, the favourite of Venus, slain by a wild boar, as feigned by the heathen poets, and which being here represented by an idol, is lamented by the female worshippers of that goddess. In Hebrew the name is Tammuz, (Challoner) which means "concealed," as Adonis signifies "my lord." This idol, which the Egyptians called Osiris, was placed in a coffin, and bewailed till it was pretended he was come to life, when rejoicings took place. Obscene pictures were carried about; and the more honest pagans were ashamed of these practices, which began in Egypt, and became almost general. Moses alludes to them, Leviticus xix. 27., and Deuteronomy xiv. 1. (Calmet) --- David and Solomon say that the image was made of brass, with eyes of lead, which seemed to weep, melting when it was hot. (Worthington) --- But this is destitute of proof.
That chapter and verses have nothing to do with Catholicism. You have no truth within you, rather you make a false equivalency fallacy and think if something is Catholic it’s automatically wrong.
@@Joshharrison224 Thank you for that your reply was interesting. You are right my initial post was not accurate and i have amended it.
Ooo...edgy
