Blessing of Vestments
Being Holy Thursday, I thought it appropriate to bless my gold Solemn Mass set in anticipation of our Solemn High Mass on Easter Sunday. You may have seen pictures of me with my two deacons vested for Christmas Mass. Now I have the complete set. Pictures below. When using the Roman Ritual, the book contains both the Latin and the vernacular, however, under Summorum Pontificum, one must use the Latin. The vernacular is present for reference purposes.

The Roman Ritual

The tunic is the proper vesture for a subdeacon. Included is the stole (if the one serving is a cleric) and maniple.

The humeral veil is worn by the subdeacon while he holds the paten during the recitation of the Roman Canon.
The cope and humeral veil are also used by the priest during Exposition and Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament and for Eucharistic Processions.
Beautiful! Many years Father!
Wishing you a blessed and Holy Easter, Father. Thanks!
Thank you, Father, for sharing not only the beautiful pictures of the vestments, but for their uses. Have a wonderful and blessed Easter weekend.
