Proper name for the liturgical celebration.

Proper name for the liturgical celebration.

• A. Icon
• B. Divine Liturgy
• C. Prie Dieu
• D. Holy Water

Answer: (B)

The concept being tested is naming the main public worship service in certain Christian traditions. The Divine Liturgy is the proper term for the principal Eucharistic celebration in many Eastern Christian churches (notably Orthodox and some Eastern Catholic communities). It designates the solemn service in which the Word is proclaimed and the Eucharist is consecrated and shared, forming the core of their liturgical worship. The other options are not names for a liturgical celebration: an icon is a sacred image used in devotion, a prie-dieu is a kneeling bench for private prayer, and holy water is blessed water used for blessings. Therefore, the liturgical celebration is called the Divine Liturgy.
