Catholic Teachings..
Many of us would seen the Priest kiss the altar before and after mass but thats the second thing he has to kiss.. First he has to kiss the Stole when he dresses for Mass!

In the ancient world a kiss was given not just to one's spouse and close family. It was a sign of respect in addition to being a sign of love. At Mass the clergy kiss the altar and the Book of the Gospels as signs of love and respect for these holy objects and what they symbolize.
When a priest vests for Mass he kisses his stole before putting it on.

The stole is a symbol of the office of priesthood into which he has been ordained. A priest at Mass acts in persona christi, it is an awesome mystery and a great privilege. His kiss of the stole is a sign of respect for the office to which God has called him.

SOLEMNITY OF THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD

We are celebrating the Epiphany of the Lord today. The Magi from the East travelled to Jerusalem, looking for the “newborn king of the Jews.” Herod was disturbed upon hearing this, while the chief priests and scribes couldn't care less even though they did know of the prophecy.

The Magi continued their search and followed the star. Soon they found the Christ Child and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. They did not return to Herod.

Friends, today’s feast reminds us that God wills to manifest himself to us and he sends stars or signs that will be useful in our search—but the question is.. are we looking for him?

MASSES FOR THE DEAD ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS OF THE ROMAN MISSAL

379. The Church offers the Eucharistic Sacrifice of Christ’s Pasch for the dead so that, since all the members of Christ’s Body are in communion with one another, what implores spiritual help for some, may bring comforting hope to others.

380. Among the Masses for the Dead, the Funeral Mass holds first place. It may be celebrated on any day except for Solemnities that are Holydays of Obligation, Thursday of Holy Week (Holy Thursday), the Paschal Triduum, and the Sundays of Advent, Lent, and Easter, with due regard also for all the other requirements of the norm of the law.

383. The faithful, and especially those of the deceased’s family, should be urged to participate in the Eucharistic Sacrifice offered for the deceased person.

384. If the Funeral Mass is directly joined to the rite of burial, once the Prayer after Communion has been said and omitting the Concluding Rites, there takes place the Rite of Final Commendation or Farewell. This rite is celebrated only if the body is present.

385. In the arranging and choosing of the variable parts of the Mass for the Dead, especially the Funeral Mass (for example, orations, readings, and the Universal Prayer), pastoral considerations bearing upon the deceased, the family, and those attending should be kept in mind.

Moreover, pastors should take into special account those who are present at a liturgical celebration or who hear the Gospel on the occasion of the funeral and who may be non-Catholics or Catholics who never or hardly ever participate in the Eucharist or who seem even to have lost the faith. For Priests are ministers of Christ’s Gospel for all.
