The Pastor is IN...
The richest prayer of the Church at which we literally rest on the Heart of Christ the King is the celebration of the Eucharist Liturgy. Every day, around the world, Holy Mass is celebrated for the salvation of the world and for the strengthening of the Mystical Body of Christ. The Catechism helps us delve into the why of the Liturgy. “The wonderful works of God among the people of the Old Testament were but a prelude to the work of Christ the Lord in redeeming mankind and giving perfect glory to God. He accomplished this work principally by the Paschal mystery of his blessed Passion, Resurrection from the dead, and glorious Ascension, whereby 'dying he destroyed our death, rising he restored our life.' For it was from the side of Christ as he slept the sleep of death upon the cross that there came forth the wondrous sacrament of the whole “Church"' (Catechism of the Catholic Church article 1067).
For this reason, the Church celebrates in the liturgy above all the Paschal (Easter) mystery by which Christ accomplished the work of our salvation. It is this mystery of Christ that the Church proclaims and celebrates in her liturgy so that the faithful may live from it and bear witness to it in the world. Our participation in saving work of Christ at Mass is meant to truly change our lives and strengthen us to be the saints we were baptized to be. From the liturgy the Church receives the Blessed Sacrament, the source and summit of the Christian life (Lumen Gentium article 11). All that we do and who we are as the People of God is given its meaning, strength, purpose, hope and love by the Holy Eucharist.
With this in mind we continue our journey through what we use for the celebration of Mass. Today we will delve into some of the vessels used at Mass. Again, nothing used at the altar is superfluous or accidental. The items used have a meaning and symbolism that points beyond themselves and to the truth that at every Mass we join the ranks of the heavenly hosts in that eternal banquet feast of The Lamb in the Heavenly Kingdom.
Chalice: from the Latin calyx (cup) is the cup into which wine and a little water are mixed. At the consecration of the Mass, the wine (that in the chalice as well as wine in the smaller chalices if the congregation will receive under both Species) becomes the Precious Blood of Jesus, in which Christ is truly present Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity. The chalice is usually beautifully designed, and must be at least lined with precious metal as a sign of respect. The General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM) tell us that precious metal is the preferred and best material to use. Chalices and patens made
completely from 14kt gold may not be within the budget for many parishes, and so gold plating is acceptable. The outside may be gold or silver, but the inside (which will hold and touch the consecrated Body and Blood) should be plated (gilded) with gold. Notable exceptions to this are the beautiful chalices made from local materials used by priests in labor camps or under persecution to celebrate Mass.
The chalice is a sign of our dignity as we stand before God. When Jesus Christ became man, he assumed human nature. He took on our humanity. He has consecrated human nature when He became man. Man has become "a sacred vessel" through Mary when, in the name of mankind, she conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit. One might imagine Jesus, just as any mother’s son, having many of the same physical features of Mary! When we gaze upon the chalice at Mass, we might be reminded of what we have become and what we can become because of the Incarnation. The divine nature and human nature have become inseparable in the Person of Jesus Christ. The Incarnation in and of itself reveals the dignity of the human family.
Paten: from the Latin patena (a broad, shallow dish or pan). It is a saucer-like disk that holds the bread that becomes the Body of Christ. The paten, like the bowl of the chalice must be of gold or silver gilt. A formula of blessing for the paten speaks of the vessel as blessed "for the administration of the Eucharist of Jesus Christ, that the Body of our Lord may be broken upon it." and also as "the new sepulcher of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ".
Ciborium: from the Latin cibus (food) or from the Greek kirorion (cup). A chalicelike vessel used to contain the Blessed Sacrament. The design of the ciborium does differ from the chalice like version pictured or the more rounded bowls used here at the parish. Both are perfectly legitimate and usable. The ciborium must be rendered and/or lined in precious metal as with the chalice and paten.
Pyx: from the Latin pyxis, which transliterates the Greek, pyxos, boxwood receptacle was formerly applied in a wide and general sense to all vessels used to contain the Blessed Eucharist. In modern however it has come about that the term pyx is limited in ordinary usage to that smaller vessel of gold, or silver gilt, in which the Eucharist is commonly carried to the sick. The bag that the pyx is usually carried in when transported is call a burse.
There are more items that we will look at next week.
St. Edward, pray for us. Treu in Christus, faithfully in Christ, Fr. Rod
