PhuturePriest Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I couldn't live without the beautiful smell of incense. Every Mass needs lots and lots of incense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJon16 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 So, my hall is on the same level as, and right around the corner from, the main chapel's choir loft, the doors to which are always open. This means that on Sundays and Solemnities (all of last week) when tons of incense is used, our hall (and consequently, our rooms) are filled with the smell of incense. It's absolutely wonderful. #seminaryswag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrysostom Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 love it. It's a signal that I am in the house of the Lord, at the gate of Heaven. It's a call for me to offer up the incense of prayer that the saints in turn offer to God in the heavenly Liturgy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luigi Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I like it well enough, but I know people who can't breathe when incense smoke is in the air. I was at a Mass last year where they literally filled the church with it - a couple of the people I was with almost left Mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AugustineA Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 The more incense the better. At my parish you can smell it about halfway down the block, and you leave smelling like incense. When the choir is chanting, and the sun is streaming in from the stained glass, and the priest is praying, I'm always reminded of the psalms, I will come to your house O Lord. Introibo ad altare Dei. I often pray with a candle and incense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
