What vestments do priests wear on Thanksgiving?

Answer 1: Priests -- I presume you mean of the Catholic variety -- wear essentially the same vestments all the time, except that certain colors change, depending on the season or event.I won't go into the details of such as, for example, Alb, Girdle, Stole, Chasuble, Cope or Cassock. Suffice it, for your purposes, I believe, to say that the color at Thanksgiving is usually green......which it is tempting to say is the color used when no other color is called for, but it's actually not quite as simple as that.AnswerThere is no vestment called for on Thanksgiving, assuming you are talking about the American holiday. Thanksgiving is a civil holiday, not a Church holy day.

What does a blue vestment mean in Catholic Church?

In the Church, the color purple represents Penance. Therefore, the purple vestments are worn during Lent/Easter, a time where Christ died to forgive us of our sins. . In the Catholic Church a "purple" vestment means that you do not know the correct terminology for liturgical colors in current terminology. Currently, purple only refers to Bishop's cassocks and such while violet is the word used for vestments. In the Catholic Church violet vestments are used in Advent, Lent, and for sacraments of confession and at other times for penance.

What color robes do priests wear during Confirmation?

Catholic priests do not wear robes when administering the sacrament of confession. Usually they wear a surplice, which is a white long-sleeved linen garment that extends just beyond the waist, and a purple stole. The purple stole is considered so important that even when in prisons or in times of extreme persecution, priests hid a purple stole on their persons, even if it was no more than a purple thread, for use when hearing confessions.
