question about offeratory procession

[BAFRIEND]

FOR CATHOLICS- does your parish follow the tradition of bringing the gifts to the altar after the collection, or does your priest choose not to do it that way ?

 

[Michie]

Mine does.

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

We always have the procession of the gifts.

 

[HandmaidenOfGod]

My Grandmother's Polish Catholic parish does.

 

[Winter]

My parish brings gifts to the altar.

 

[Boswell345]

I attend at 4 different parishes, ande they all do it.

 

[MarkRohfrietsch]

It's not common in our tradition. They are placed on the Altar prior to service and covered with a veil. The veil is removed during the singing of the offeratory at the beginning of the Liturgy of the Sacrament.

 

[St_Barnabus]

Sunday liturgies - always.
Weekday liturgies - no.

Good clarification; I forgot about that .....same here

 

[Wirraway]

Sundays always -- and I wish it were easier to get volunteers for this.
Weekdays, no.

Ditto.

I remember as a kid the procession was more elaborate than I see it now. Then, we had candles, the bread, the wine, the water, and a few trays. Now, it's simply the bread and wine.

in some parishes, I've seen a basket of money from the collection added.

 

[darby8]

Oh, yeah! As an usher in my Parish, how could I forget the monetary collection???

hey 4th degree.... 3d/officer here.

I'm an usher too, we handle the collection and start the procession while the collection is ongoing, so as a practical matter it wouldn't work. I assume that our pastor has made the ultimate call though. if he wanted it, we'd oblige.

 

[darby8]

Yeah, every Parish is different. They actually put me in charge of the ushers here! It's fun. My favorite is Easter Vigil Mass because it is so beautiful.

I'm a trustee in 5660 (Iowa). (Former FS, former DGK, former GK, and former agent!)

 

[Michie]

Mine does during the week also.

warden here in Las Vegas. my dad was a FS for a looooong time before that office was split from the treasurer. at my mother's funeral recently, I met a 4th degree who has been lead usher at his Mass for 51 years. I think my dad had 15 years on his crew and he wasn't senior.

The Offertory does not involve a procession in my tradition.
