Thurible Training



I was instructed on the ideal way in which to hold a Thurible today at the 10.30am Sung Mass at St Mary Magdalen. I scouted YouTube looking for a formal instruction video on Thuribles: The Ultimate Guide to Being a Thurifer. I couldn't find one. The best Thurible action I have seen recently is the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate using the Thurible absolutely immaculately.

I did, however, find the World's largest Thurible in action at Santiago De Compostela. Watch this! Imagine the Health and Safety Executive getting ahold of this in the UK!

  1. Perhaps not the HSE- more likely the anti-smoking gestapo.

  2. I have seen the Botafumeiro in action in Compostela. Very impressive.
