The Botafumeiro is 1 of the world's largest censers. It is definitely not 1 of those whimpy ones that you see (when you even do see) in many of the liturgies. & IMHO truly worthy of being used to offer up prayers God as they should be. It holds about 40 kg of charcoal & incense.

Sono Italiano-americano. I am a member of St Joseph the Worker Roman Catholic Church. I am an advisor to Alpha Phi Omega & College Republicans at Loras College. I am a member of the Dubuque Co. Republican Central Committee. I have been involved in the Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement since 1974. For me the overriding issue of the day is defending the preborn & upholding their right to life. If we don't value life before birth, we devalue it after birth. Life is a gift from God. This is why I am a supporter of the work that Dubuque County Right to Life does in my area. & that is why I am politically active. Our nation's laws need to be changed to protect all from conception to natural death.
