The alb is the long white, robe-like vestment worn by all clerics at liturgical celebrations (celebrant, concelebrant, deacon, or acolyte). The alb (from Latin word alba, meaning "white") can be traced to the ancient Roman alb worn under a cloak or tunic; its color symbolizes purity and its form recalls that described in Ezekiel 28:4.

Eze 28:4 In thy wisdom and thy understanding thou hast made thyself strong: and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures.

Eze. 28 deals with Satan portraying God...What's the connection here???

The Eastern vesting prayers:

The Alb

My soul shall rejoice in the Lord, for He has clothed me with the garment of salvation; He has covered me with the robe of gladness; as a bridegroom He has set a crown on me; and as a bride adorns herself with jewels,so He has adorned me.

The Cincture

Blessed is God, who girds me with strength and makes my way blameless. He made my feet like hinds’ feet, and sets me secure on the heights.

The Stole

Blessed is God, who pours out his grace upon his ministers, as myrrh upon the head, that runs down the beard, the beard of Aaron, that runs down the border of his robe.

The Maniple

Thy hands have made and fashioned me. Give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.

The Chasuble

Thy priests, O Lord, will clothe themselves with righteousness, and Thy people will rejoice with joy always, now and ever and unto ages of ages, Amen.

Very cool.

I remember when I was an altar boy I used to be able to hear and see some of this.

My old monsignor used to put on a piece and sit down and obviously meditate for a few minutes, then put on the next, then sit down, then the next,...

Our pastor wears a blue long-sleeve buttondown shirt with dress slacks and shoes for the traditional 8 and 9:30 a.m. service, and then changes into blue jeans and tennis shoes or boat shoes for the 11 a.m. “contemporary” service . . . .

Yeah, that really was good- especially because each piece has a meaning!
