Giant Thurible

With absolute certainty, I used the word 'thurible' more than any other human did in 2018.  Searching for the right incense thuribles for the CHURCH Haunt was rather stressful.  I came across this massive thing in my online quests.

Not that I'm an expert on such matters, but I'm thinking Jesus would be rather concerned about how much something like this cost.

Damn. It’s a wonder that the poor guy could breathe or see.

Yeah, you need a big thurible for a big church! Haha.
Personally, incense has always been a love-hate with me. I’m prone to lightheaded ness and fainting and it always causes headaches. But. I appreciate the reason they use it.

I’m with Jay. I’m surprised he could handle it! I’d be a mess, lol.

Sara, me too. It would smell nice but my eyes would start to water. If they let me pull that rope when I was an altar boy I would have that thing swinging around!

Sara said...

HAHA, WC.You KNOW that guy swinging it is like ,"This is SO COOL." lol!

Also, my son altar serves and tells me that a Brother at the Church taught them all how to swing the turible (while lit) all the way around like a "Round the World" type of stunt. For fun. Good times.

I always hated the people who, in the back of the church, and who, upon SEEING the white smoke of incense, would start coughing...long before it made its way into the back of the church.

Fakers.

I’ve only been in a Catholic Church one time, and that was for my cousin’s wedding.

It took FOREVER. And the guy she was marrying was in a biker gang. Didn’t know there were practicing biker gang members. Guess they said their hail marrys while beating up people.

But I did enjoy the incense.
