Re 30049

Thank you for your response. I had always pictured the Orthodox churches as being made up entirely of people wearing monk’s robes, swinging those things with the incense in them, and singing in Gregorian chant. Reading the posts of you, Wordsmith and newberger have given me a more realistic view of your church.

Censer. I know Wordsmith already told you that, but I wanted to verify that we Romans call that a "censer" as well. If you learn nothing else here on the Neverending Thread, as least remember this. It might come up on Jeopardy sometime. ;-)
