By special Holy See permission, he. belongs both to

By Fr. Clement Englert, C.SS.R.
(Written for N.C.W.C. News Service)
A good deal has been said about the origins of the Ori
ental rites and of their presence in America. An interested
person gets to the point of asking: “What makes an Eastern
Rite differ from ours? What does an Oriental Mass look like?”
Obviously, a small review of this kind cannot give any
thing like a full picture of Mass in each of the rites. Since
the Byzantine Rite is by far the most widespread, and is more
over the rite of the I krainian/Catholics who are sponsoring

Liturgical Features Of Eastern Rites Explained
priesthood.
some of the ritual features of the
Byzantine Rite. Many of these lea
lures obtain in other rites too and
where they do not, chances are
that the Eastern Kile in quest ion
follows the Roman usage.
,4 Byzantine Catholic makes the
Sign of the Cross in manner slight
ly different from ourselves. The
hand moves first to the right shoul
der and then to the left. The tips
of the thumb, index and middle
fingers are held together as a sign
ot belief in the Holy Trinity—
three Persuns in one God—while
the remaining two fingers are clos
ed together unto the palm of the
hand as a sign of faith in the two
natures, human and divine, that
are united in the one divine person
of Jesus Christ.
As a gesture of piety this Sign
of the Cross is made again and
|gain during a Byzantine service.
Usually it is made by the priest
and the people whenever mention
occurs of the Persons of the Holy
Trinity. Il is also made in conjunc
tion with a bow—more or less pro
found, depending upon the piety
and physique of (he worshipper
instead of a genuflection.
The priest blesses the people
with his hand six times during the
Mass. In giving a blessing the
priest holds his lingers in a ritual
ly prescribed position, that is, he
forms, with the five lingers of his
right hand, the letters IC-XC,
which are the first and last letters
ot the sacred names -Jesus Christ
■—in the old Greek alphabet. The
index finger points straight out to
form I the middle and little fin
gers curve to form twice the
thumb is crossed over the fourth
linger to form X. This symbolism
is a reminder that the priest acts
in the name of Jesus Christ, and
that all blessings flow from Him.
The Byzantine vestments re

gin. The stole is long and joined
together in the front the cinc
ture is a band of cloth matching
the other vestments instead of a
maniple the priest wears a cuff
on each forearm the chasuble
resembles a Roman cope, with
the front solid across the chest
and the lower front cut away.
Both the Roman and the Byzan
tine chasuble had the same ori
gin: the original chasuble fell
to the floor on all sides. In the
West the sides were gradually
cut off to facilitate the priest's
movements in the East the low
er front was graduaally cut off
for the same purpose.
In the Byzantine Kite there is no
strict sequence of colors. Tradition
ally the rule is slated, bright col
ors are to be used on feast days
dark colors are proper for days ol
last or of mourning. Usually black
was used lor funerals and white
for the Easter season and lor Sun
days. In ancient times this rule was
carried out by using chiefly two
colors: white and dark red, and
these are still the most frequently
used in Byzantine churches. How
ever, light blue, yellow, gold, and
pink are often used for white, and
dark blue, green, purple or violet
are used for red.

Among the various liturgical feature* of the Eastern Rites, we
find differences in vestments and their colors. Communion under

sign of the cross and others. In this picture a member of the Eastern
Rite receives Holy Communion.

The chairman uf the International

that this mass movement indicated
that religious suppression already
has begun or is threatened in the

Cherne described Premier Ngo
Dinh Diem, whose government is
threatened by a revolt headed by
General Nguyen Van Hinh, Army
chief of staff, as “an ardent, de
vout Catholic who spent years liv
ing in monasteries in the western
world.” Mr. Cherne also referred
to the premier as an "ascetic who
does not drink nor smuke.”
Declaring that United States
“power, prestige and influence are
all un the line in Vietnam,” Mr.
Cherne added: "That being the
case, it would be a misfortune of
some consequence if the present
government fell.”
