mulls Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 My buddy loves the incense that the Catholic church uses. What is it made of and where can one get it? Personally, it reminds me of funerals too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iggy Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 while i think there are different types of incense, you may want to consider looking at christian stores, a lot of times they have random Catholic stuff like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[img]http://www.eborg3.com/Graphics/Bible/66-Revelation/Rev08/Censer-04.jpg[/img] I don't know if there is a specific type for funerals, but there are different kinds. It's made by burning rubbery sap from comes from trees native to the Middle East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old_Joe Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 (edited) The CFR's in the Bronx used a kind of cement block with a little cavity in it in which to place the incense. i thought that was pretty cool. Edited June 27, 2005 by Old_Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keighters Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 CFRs!!! ahhh thats my family. When were you there?? When I was out on mission last summer on a Navajo reservation, the Church there used a clay pot and then a feather to spread the incense around... the did a bunch of stuff like that in order to keep some elements of the Navajo Tradition with the Catholic faith.
