Glory to Jesus Christ! I have a poll of sorts regarding the Presanctified Liturgy--in the Greek Traditions, I have seen the celebrant places a (chalice?) veil over his head as he processes with the precious and holy Eucharist during the Great Entrance.
So I was wondering....
Do some Slavic traditions also keep this practice of the priest processing with head veiled?
Is it easy to differentiate based on countries of origin (Russian vs. Ukrainian vs. Ruthenian vs. Serbian vs. x?) etc?
Thanks, JAD

Let me state the poll more clearly:
At a presanctified liturgy, have you seen the priest make the great entrance with the holy gifts with his head covered, or uncovered?
In either cases, please state the jurisdiction/tradition.
Thanks, JAD

Yeah. At the point where we sing the Now the Powers, we do kneel and prostrate at that time, so we can't really see anything like that. Although I don't think the Ruthenian tradition has veiled priests. This sounds like an Oriental Catholic tradition.

Haven't seen neither the priest nor the deacons covering their heads (St. John the Baptist Cathedral, Eparchy of Parma, Ruthenian Byzantine Catholic Church). I'll have to see if Fr. James Batcha does this when I head to Holy Spirit this Friday evening (he's at his other parish (St. Nicholas Croatian Byzantine Church) on Wednesdays, which is in the downtown area).

They should most definitely cover their heads with the Aer according to most Rubrics I've read

do you really want me to make a list? No. It doesn't matter who does it. It is not prescribed in the Ruthenian Ordo. If Ruthenians start doing everything everyone else does and not following their own books there will soon be no Ruthenian Recension.

WOW!^2 WOW!^n where n → ∞ (Yes, a bit exuberant, but the point is, well said. My context is the RDL and its woeful lack of adherence to the stated principle, among other things.)
