It is heart shaped with a Cross on one side and a Lamb with a Cross on the other. Beautiful!!! The Agnus Dei is blessed only by the pope. The Ceremony takes place during Easter Time in the first year in the reign of the Sovereign Pontiff, and once every seven years treafter. The Blessing takes place on First Thursday of Easter week. The Ceremony of Blessing is as follows; The Pope first blesses the water, then pours balsam and oil into it to form a cross. He then recites special prayers and a blessing over a great number of ornately decorated lambs made of wax. The lambs are then carried on silver bowers with great soleminity by his attendants who then immerse them in blessed water. The prelates who are in attendance, lift them out of the water and dry them. They are put in a special place untill the next saturday. On the Saturday of the week of easter during the mass of the Holy father, a subdeacon carries the Agnus Dei to the alter on a large silver tray, before the Popes Communion, Singing; "Holy Father these are the young lambs which have announced to you, Alleluia Behold they have just come from the fountains; they are filled with light, Alleluia!" words which inply the representation of the newly baptized. The Pope then distributes the Agnus Dei, with approprate ceremony, during the singing of the Agnus Dei of the mass- First to the Cardinals, who on receiving, kiss his hand; next the Bishops, who kiss his right knee; and finally to the Prothonotaries, who Prostrate themselves and kiss the cross on his sandals. From the hands of these persons, the Angus Dei find t way to all parts of the world, usally nuns. They then are incased in an approprate cover- generally a heart for the use of the faithful. *Free Shipping On Second Item!!! SUPER LOW START!!!
