Humeral veils
( number of products: 29 )Humeral veils are a Roman Rite ceremonial vestment that is also adopted by some Anglican and Lutheran churches. During the rite of Exposition and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, the humeral veil catholic is most often seen. When priests or deacons bless the people with the sacramentals, they cover their hands with the edges of the humeral veil vestment so that their hands do not make contact with the monstrance as a gesture of respect for the holy vessel and as a sign that the people are blessed by Jesus present in the Eucharistic genus, not the minister.
When a priest or deacon carries the Blessed Sacrament in procession or blesses with the Blessed Sacrament exhibited in the monstrance during Benediction, the humeral veil vestment is the tall, oval 'coat' that is wrapped across their shoulders over the robe or other vestment. It is frequently ornamental, and some humeral veils contain compartments at the ends for the wearer to place his hands into. This makes holding the thing to be carried simpler.
The humeral veils can be pleated in two ways: singularly like an accordion or equally like an accordion. The humeral veil catholic is also seen at the Catholic Church's Lord's Supper Mass and t is used during the Good Friday ceremony when the Ciborium carrying the Blessed Sacrament is conveyed in procession to the point of reposition, and again when it is returned to the altar without solemnity.
It is usually accompanied by two string ties around the breast that the priest wears over his shoulders. These humeral veils were manufactured as part of Solemn Mass sets and are available in a variety of styles and liturgical colors. The textiles and layout would have complemented the rest of the set well.
