Parts of the Mass

Vestments, Sacred Vessels, Altar, and Tabernacle
Alb	Latin, alba, a white garment--derived from a Roman toga? The vestment is a reminder of Baptism and our desire to be cleansed by God's grace.
Cincture	(some albs do not require cinctures)--a rope that functions like a belt and reminds the priest of the need for self-control.
Stole	A cloth band that goes over the shoulders of the priests. It is the distinctive sign of the office of the priest. Deacons have a different kind of stole.
Chasuble	Derived from Roman "overcoats." "Above all things, put on charity, which is the bond of perfection" (Col 3:14). Liturgical colors used for the stole and chasuble: White: resurrection; solemnities of the Lord; feasts and memorials of saints. Red: the color of blood; Passion and Death of Jesus; feasts and memorials of martyrs; Holy Spirit. Green: ordinary time, the largest part of the Church year, during which we study the things that Jesus said and did in the presence of His disciples. Purple: penitence and anticipation; Advent and Lent. Rose (pink): Gaudete Sundy in Advent and Laetare Sunday in Lent. Joy!
Chalice	The cup we use for the Blood of Christ.
Paten	The plate or bowl we use for the Body of Christ.
Ciborium	The covered vessel in which consecrated hosts are preserved in the Tabernacle.
Altar	Dual symbolism: - a raised platform for offering sacrifice, like the altar in the Holy of Holies in the Temple; - the Table of the Lord, like the Passover table, used to provide food and drink for the feast.
Tabernacle	From the Latin word for "tent," which is reminiscent of the Meeting Tent used by the People of God in their Exodus from Egypt and which, in turn, became the model for the Holy of Holies within the Temple in Jerusalem.
