The initials after a priest's name denotes what order they belong to, however, never have I found a resource so that I can look up the ones I do not know.

It was a good way to get them working before we started the actual lesson of the day. They learned a lot as did I. Often on exams they would find the symbols as extra credit questions. <br /><br />Thank you!

Through the ages Catholics uses different symbols to express their unexpressed thoughts, and I think even <a href="http://www.alittleindulgence.us/communion-veils/c59/index.html" rel="nofollow">communion veils</a> had its meaning to Catholic belief.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181196602536935319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560483615460834385.post-47546262127115844122012-02-18T20:39:24.561-05:002012-02-18T20:39:24.561-05:00Fr.

For instance, St. Clare's monstrance, St. Peregrine's dog, St. Patrick's shamrock, etc. It's always fun amazing non-Catholics by correctly identifying a picture before reading the label. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
