Dear Mark,
The PRINCIPAL CELEBRANT preaches at the ambo (lectern, pulpit)
or the celebrant's chair. A CONCELEBRANT or DEACON, or a
PRIEST or DEACON in choir dress, preaches at the ambo (cf.
Peter J. Elliott. "Ceremonies of the Modern Roman Rite", #430
Ignatius Press).
Sincerely in Christ,
Father Mateo
- Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit -
