How to burn incense:
We recommend that people purchase incense burners, or a terracotta cup, or small receptacle to allow ash to build up so that the hot coals can be placed directly upon the ash to insulate the container. The incense should be placed directly next to the hot coal to allow for a longer time of sweet melting of the incense.

 

Made of:

  • Plant matter, with resin base
  • Each scent uses a specific ancient recipe
  • Infused with a floral oil

The burning of incense dates back to Old Testament times and is carried forth into how we worship today.

The priest Aaron (Moses' brother) burned incense on the altar as an expression of offering worship to God every morning and everyday at dusk (Exodus 30:7–8). Scripture states that God himself provided the recipe for the incense that Aaron was to use and could use and he could use no other incense at all (Exodus 30: 34–38).

In the Orthodox Church of today, the priest continues to carry on the tradition of censing the church and the people during times of holy services. We even pray that we wish our prayer to be lifted up to God as the sweet smelling incense, as a symbol of worship and the lifting up of our hands to God.

Uses:
Many Orthodox Christians burn incense at home during times of prayer, or when it's time to put the children to bed, or upon rising. For safety, we recommend only adults burn the incense.
