The question will always be put to the pastor. The bishop does not micro-manage.Many descisions are held to the local ordinary, the ones being discussed here are not. It is up to the pastor for these topics here on this thread.
The bishop would need not be contacted about Tim exposing and reposing the Blessed Sacrament for this event he is asking, only the pastor of this parrish. The use of incense is in the same boat…get it, boat? Punn intended…![]()
We hope that the pastor and bishop are in agreement as the pastor serves at the bishops request. Sorry if I explained it poorly,.
Reposition and Exposition are defined in Canon Law. Under certain conditions the laity are allowed to do either/or both.
The question then becomes incense without a cleric. I have never seen that done yet I see nothing to prohibit it either. I think some priests would allow it under the certain conditions and some not.
Most "boats " that I have used are round. No pun intended.
