Liturgical Occasions and Gift Packaging

White is a liturgical color symbolizing joy, purity, and glory. It is used primarily during Christmas and Easter, as well as for solemnities and feasts of the Lord, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the angels, and for commemorations of saints who were not martyrs. Because of its Marian embroidery, the altar linen set is also particularly suitable for feasts and commemorations of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The altar linen set is packaged in a gift box with a clear window, making it suitable as a gift for a first Mass or an ordination anniversary.
