The Symbolism of the IHS Monogram in the Liturgy

Placing the IHS symbol on a chasuble or dalmatic emphasizes the Eucharistic nature of the liturgy, pointing to the presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. For this reason, this motif is particularly often used in the decoration of vestments intended for the celebration of Holy Mass.
