Unique Traditions

Talking with a subdeacon in the Chaldean church I was reminded the Church of the East (Assyrians not in communion with Rome unlike Chaldeans) have a sacrament called Holy Leaven. It is a tradition that a part of the bread from the Last Supper was saved and has been passed down and a part of this is mixed with other ingredients and used as part of the baking of every bread for the Eucharist.

What traditions are unique to your church? Either denomination or individual church?

  • In the Church of England, anything (however surreal or bizarre) which is done at least three times becomes a Tradition™, as in *We've always done it*.

    in the south west it is more like once a custom and twice tradition 😳
