| The procession is led by the crucifer, lucifers and thurifer followed by the priest bearing the Blessed Sacrament. |
| If necessary the number may be reduced to only two torchbearers and thurifer, or even just the thurifer alone. |
| The celebrant and thurifer must have been trained by baton-twirling majorettes, as they were of the school that likes to rotate the thurible through 360 degrees! |
| It was, and still is, customary for the thurifer then to incense the people in parochial churches. |
| Clouds of incense led the procession with the thurifer swinging full circles and figure eights. |
| Often during Mass the thurifer swings the censer to incense the congregation, and sometimes that makes me so mad. |
