The chasuble is the outermost garment worn by the priest during Mass. It is designed to be the most visible symbol of the celebrant’s role and the unity of the congregation. It symbolizes charity, reflecting the priest’s call to love and serve the community, mirroring Christ’s self-giving love. The GIRM provides guidelines on the use and appropriate design of the chasuble, ensuring that its form and decoration do not distract from the sacred action.
Historical & Liturgical Basis
Originating in the early centuries of the Church, the chasuble evolved from simpler outer garments used in worship. Its current form, refined through liturgical reforms (notably after the Second Vatican Council), emphasizes simplicity and clarity.The chasuble’s symbolism of charity is rooted in early Christian writings and has been consistently highlighted in official liturgical documents.
