Al pastor
–
Al pastor, also known as tacos al pastor, is a dish developed in Central Mexico, shawarma spit-grilled meat brought by the Lebanese immigrants to Mexico. Being derived from shawarma, it is similar to the Turkish döner kebab. Although shawarma and döner are usually lamb-based, gyros and tacos al pastor in Mexico are pork based, in some places of northern Mexico, as in Baja California, this taco is called taco de adobada. Lebanese immigration to Mexico started in the 19th and early 20th centuries see Lebanese Mexicans, in 1892, the first Lebanese arrived in Mexico from Beirut in French ships to Mexican ports. In the 1960s, Mexican born Lebanese migrants began opening their own restaurants, pork is marinated in a combination of dried chilies, spices and pineapple. When ready, the meat is thinly sliced off the spit with a large knife. It is served on small tortillas, with chopped onions, coriander, and occasionally a small slice of pineapple. This meat is an ingredient in not just tacos, but also gringas, alambres, huaraches, tortas. A similar dish is called tacos árabes, which originated in Puebla in the 1930s from Arab Mexican cuisine, tacos árabes use shawarma-style meat carved from a spit, but are served in a pita-style bread called pan árabe. A non-pork version was brought back to the Middle East in the early 2000s and it is essentially a chicken shawarma made in the Middle Eastern style, with the only difference being the marination of the chicken in the al pastor style.

Rosy starling
–
The rosy starling is a passerine bird in the starling family, Sturnidae, also known as the rose-coloured starling or rose-coloured pastor. The species was placed in its own monotypic genus, Pastor. This split is supported by recent studies, though related species within its new genus are not yet known for certain. The genus name Pastor, and the old English name come from the Latin pastor, shepherd, the specific roseus is Latin for rose-coloured. Formerly, some also considered the maroon oriole to be a species within the genus Pastor. The adult rosy starling is highly distinctive, with its body, pale orange legs and bill. Males in the season have elongated head feathers which form a wispy crest that is fluffed. In winter, the crest is shorter, and the edges of black feathers within the plumage become paler as the edges of these feather erode, winter plumage in males is comparatively dull. Females in contrast have a short crest and lack the sharp separation between pink and black, the juvenile birds can be distinguished from common starling by its obviously paler plumage and short yellow bill. Young birds moult into a version of the adult plumage in autumn. They do not acquire their adult plumage until they are one year old in females. The latter grow plumage very similar to females in their second year. The breeding range of bird is from easternmost Europe across temperate southern Asia. It is a migrant, and winters in India and tropical Asia. In India in winter, it appears to outnumber the local starlings. The rosy starling is a bird of steppe and open agricultural land, in years when grasshoppers and other insects are abundant, it will erupt well beyond its core range, with significant numbers reaching France and the United Kingdom. However, they are also beneficial to farmers as they prey on pests such as locusts and grasshoppers. The birds breed in colonies in a very short breeding season timed to take advantage of peak abundance of grasshoppers during May to June

Methodism
–
Methodism, or the Methodist movement, is a group of historically related denominations of Protestant Christianity which derive their inspiration from the life and teachings of John Wesley. George Whitefield and Johns brother Charles Wesley were also significant leaders in the movement and it originated as a revival within the 18th century Church of England and became a separate Church after Wesleys death. Because of vigorous missionary work, the movement spread throughout the British Empire, Wesleys theology focused on sanctification and the effect of faith on the character of a Christian. Distinguishing Methodist doctrines include an assurance of salvation, imparted righteousness, the possibility of perfection in love, the works of piety and the primacy of Scripture. Most Methodists teach that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for all of humanity and that salvation is available for all, in theology and this teaching rejects the Calvinist position that God has pre-ordained the salvation of a select group of people. However, Whitefield and several others were considered Calvinistic Methodists and held to the latter position, Methodism emphasises charity and support for the sick, the poor and the afflicted through the works of mercy. These ideals are put into practice by the establishment of hospitals, orphanages, soup kitchens and schools to follow Christs command to spread the gospel, the movement has a wide variety of forms of worship, ranging from high church to low church in liturgical usage. Denominations that descend from the British Methodist tradition are generally less ritualistic, Methodism is known for its rich musical tradition and Charles Wesley was instrumental in writing much of the hymnody of the Methodist Church. In Britain, the Methodist Church had an effect in the early decades of the making of the working class. In the United States, it became the religion of many slaves who later formed black churches in the Methodist tradition. The Methodist revival began with a group of men, including John Wesley and his younger brother Charles, the Wesley brothers founded the Holy Club at the University of Oxford, where John was a fellow and later a lecturer at Lincoln College. The club met weekly and they set about living a holy life. They were accustomed to receiving Communion every week, fasting regularly, abstaining from most forms of amusement and luxury and frequently visited the sick, the fellowship were branded as Methodist by their fellow students because of the way they used rule and method to go about their religious affairs. John, who was leader of the club, took the attempted mockery, unsuccessful in their work, the brothers returned to England conscious of their lack of genuine Christian faith. They looked for help to Peter Boehler and other members of the Moravian Church, at a Moravian service in Aldersgate on 24 May 1738, John experienced what has come to be called his evangelical conversion, when he felt his heart strangely warmed. Charles had reported an experience an few days previously. Considered a pivotal moment, Daniel L. John Wesley came under the influence of the Dutch theologian Jacobus Arminius, Arminius had rejected the Calvinist teaching that God had pre-ordained an elect number of people to eternal bliss while others perished eternally. Conversely, George Whitefield, Howell Harris, and Selina Hastings, George Whitefield, returning from his own mission in Georgia, joined the Wesley brothers in what was rapidly to become a national crusade

Cassock
–
The white or black cassock, or soutane, is an item of Christian clerical clothing used by the clergy of Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican and Reformed churches, among others. Ankle-length garment is the meaning of the corresponding Latin term. It is related to habit traditionally worn by nuns, monks, the cassock derives historically from the tunic that in ancient Rome was worn underneath the toga and the chiton that was worn beneath the himation in ancient Greece. In religious services, it has traditionally been worn underneath vestments, the word cassock comes from Middle French casaque, meaning a long coat. In turn, the old French word may come ultimately from Turkish quzzak, the name was originally specially applied to the dress worn by soldiers and horsemen, and later to the long garment worn in civil life by both men and women. As an ecclesiastical term the word came into use somewhat late, being mentioned in canon 74 of 1604. The word soutane is a French-derived word, coming from Italian sottana, derived in turn from Latin subtana, the cassock comes in a number of styles or cuts, though no particular symbolism attaches to these. A Roman cassock often has a series of buttons down the front – sometimes thirty-three, in some English-speaking countries these buttons may be merely ornamental, with a concealed fly-front buttoning, known as a Chesterfield front, used to fasten the garment. A French cassock also has buttons sewn to the sleeves after the manner of a suit, an Ambrosian cassock has a series of only five buttons under the neck, with a sash on the waist. A Jesuit cassock, in lieu of buttons, has a fly fastened with hooks at the collar and is bound at the waist with a cincture knotted on the right side. The ordinary Roman cassock worn by Roman Catholic clerics is black except in tropical countries, the 1969 Instruction on the dress of prelates stated that for all of them, even cardinals, the dress for ordinary use may be a simple black cassock without coloured trim. A band cincture or sash, known also as a fascia, the Instruction on the dress of prelates specifies that the two ends that hang down by the side have silk fringes, abolishing the sash with tassels. The Pope wears a white watered-silk fascia, sometimes with his coat of arms on the ends, cardinals have the additional distinction of having both choir cassock sleeves and the fascia made of scarlet watered-silk. The cut of the cassock is still a Roman-cut or French-cut Roman cassock. In the past, a cardinals cassock was made entirely of watered silk and this train was abolished by the motu proprio Valde solliciti of Pope Pius XII with effect from 1 January 1953. An elbow-length shoulder cape, open in front, is worn with the cassock. It is known as a pellegrina and it is distinct from the mozzetta, which is buttoned in front and is worn over a rochet. The general rule of the Roman Catholic Church is that the pellegrina may be worn with the cassock by cardinals, others too have made the same distinction between the simar and the cassock, but many scholars disagree with Nainfas distinction

Surplice
–
A surplice is a liturgical vestment of the Western Christian Church. The surplice is in the form of a tunic of white linen or cotton fabric, reaching to the knees and it was originally a long garment with open sleeves reaching nearly to the ground. As it remains in the Western Catholic, Anglican, and some Lutheran traditions, anglicans typically refer to a Roman-style surplice with the Medieval Latin term cotta, as it is derived from the cut-off alb. English-speaking Catholics, however, typically do not make the distinction between the two styles and refer to both as a surplice and it seems most probable that the surplice first appeared in France or England, whence its use gradually spread to Italy. The founding of the Augustinian Canons in the half of the eleventh century may have had a special influence upon the spread of the surplice. Among the Augustinian Canons the surplice was not only the choir vestment, in several localities it underwent more drastic modifications in the course of time, which led to the appearance of various subsidiary forms alongside the original type. The first two of these forms developed very early, and, in spite of their prohibition by synods here and there, they survive in various places to the present day. The latter two only appeared after the close of the Middle Ages, the first of them in South Germany, the second more especially in Venetia, as a rule, however, only the lower clergy wore these subsidiary forms of surplice. They came about partly under the influence of secular fashions, lack of exact information obscures the older history of the surplice. The word derived its name from the Medieval Latin word superpellicium which divides into super, over, in all probability the surplice forms no more than an expansion of the ordinary liturgical alb, due to the necessity for wearing it over thick furs. The first documents to mention the date from the 11th century, a canon of the Synod of Coyaca in Spain. Rome knew the surplice at least as early as the 12th century and it probably originated outside Rome, and was imported thence into the Roman use. The Eastern Churches do not use a surplice or any analogous vestment, in the Roman tradition, the surplice sometimes features lace decoration or embroidered bordures. The surplice is meant to be a miniature alb, the alb itself being the symbol of the white garment received at Baptism. As such, it is worn by any cleric, by lectors and acolytes. It is often worn, for instance, by seminarians when attending Mass and it is usually worn over a cassock and never alone, nor is it ever gathered by a belt or cincture. It may be worn under a stole by deacons and priests for liturgical ceremonies or the celebration of sacraments outside of Mass, on occasion, a cope is worn over the cassock, surplice and stole. As part of the dress of the clergy, it is normally not worn by prelates - instead, these clerics wear the rochet

Stole (vestment)
–
The stole is a liturgical vestment of various Christian denominations. It consists of a band of colored cloth, formerly usually of silk, about seven, the center of the stole is worn around the back of the neck and the two ends hang down parallel to each other in front, either attached to each other or hanging loose. The stole is almost always decorated in some way, usually with a cross or some other significant religious design and it is often decorated with contrasting galloons and fringe is usually applied to the ends of the stole following Numbers 15, 38-39. A piece of linen or lace may be stitched onto the back of the collar as a sweat guard which can be replaced more cheaply than buying a new stole. The word stole derives via the Latin stola, from the Greek στολή, garment, the stole was originally a kind of shawl that covered the shoulders and fell down in front of the body, on women they were often very large indeed. After being adopted by the Church of Rome about the seventh century, nowadays, the stole is usually wider and can be made from a wide variety of material. There are many theories as to the ancestry of the stole, some say it came from the tallit, because it is very similar to the present usage but this theory is no longer regarded much today. More popular is the theory that the stole originated from a kind of liturgical napkin called a very similar to the sudarium. In fact, in places the stole is called the orarium. Therefore, it is linked to the used by Christ in washing the feet of his disciples, and is a fitting symbol of the yoke of Christ. The most likely origin for the stole, however, is to be connected with the scarf of office among Imperial officials in the Roman Empire. As members of the clergy members of the Roman administration they were granted certain honors. The various configurations of the stole grew out of this usage, the original intent, then was to designate a person as belonging to a particular organization and to denote their rank within their group, a function which the stole continues to perform today. Stoles were already used in pre-Roman Italic religion, in the Umbrian Iguvine Tablets, a stole was used by an officiating priest during offering rituals. It was worn on the shoulder during a sacrifice, and then placed on a cake, While you are slaying it. When you have slain it, place upon the mefa cake, while you are presenting it, wear the stole on your right shoulder. Present grain-offerings and sacrifice with mead, together with the cincture and the now mostly defunct maniple, the stole symbolizes the bonds and fetters with which Jesus was bound during his Passion, it is usually ornamented with a cross. Another version is that the stole denotes the duty to spread the Word of God, a stole will generally be the liturgical color assigned by the church for the liturgical season or for the particular service

Bands (neckwear)
–
Bands are a form of formal neckwear, worn by some clergy and lawyers, and with some forms of academic dress. They take the form of two pieces of cloth, usually though not invariably white, which are tied to the neck. Bands is usually plural because they require two similar parts and did not come as one piece of cloth and those worn by clergy are often called preaching bands, tabs or Geneva bands, those worn by lawyers are called barristers bands or, more usually in Canada, tabs. In catholic Church these are known as Rabat, comes from the french Col en rabat or Col Rabattu, the rabat which dates from the 17 Century was ornated with Venetian Lace. Ruffs were popular in the century, and remained so till the late 1640s. Ruffs, like bands, were sewn to a fairly deep neck-band and they could be either standing or falling ruffs. Standing ruffs were common with legal, and official dress till comparatively late, in the early sixteenth century bands referred to the shirt neck-band under a ruff. For the rest of the century, when ruffs were still worn, all bands or collars arose from a standing neck-band of varying heights. They were tied at the throat with band-strings ending in tiny tassels or crochet-covered balls, bands were adopted in England for legal, official, ecclesiastical and academical use in the mid-seventeenth century. They varied from those worn by priests, to the much shorter ecclesiastical bands of black gauze with white hem showing on the outside, both were developments of the seventeenth century lay collar. The bands are two strips of bleached holland or similar material, falling down the front from the collar, plain linen falling bands, developed from the falling collar, replaced the ruff about 1640. Originally in the form of a collar, tied with a lace in front. Bands did not become significant until they were abandoned as an ordinary lay fashion after the Restoration in 1660. They became identified as specifically applicable to clerical, legal and academic individuals in the eighteenth century. From the eighteenth century judges and Queens Counsel took to wearing lace jabots instead of bands at courts, bands are now worn by judges, Queens Counsel, barristers, solicitors, court officials, certain public officials, university officials and less frequently also by graduands. These also form part of the dress of Queens Counsel, circuit judges. Mourning bands, which have a pleat running down the middle of each wing or tongue, are still used by barristers. Clergy may also wear bands, which may be of black material, by the end of the seventeenth century Queens Counsel wore richly laced cravats

Clerical collar
–
A clerical collar or clergy collar, also often known colloquially as a dog collar, is an item of Christian clerical clothing. It is a collar that buttons onto a clergy shirt. The collar closes at the back of the neck, presenting a seamless front and it is almost always white and was originally made of cotton or linen but is now frequently made of plastic. It may simply be a detachable tab of white in the front of the clerical shirt, the clerical shirt is traditionally black, but today is available in a variety of colors depending on the wearers preference. When clergy are delivering sermons, they sometimes attach preaching bands to their clerical collar, according to the Church of Englands Enquiry Centre, the detachable clerical collar was invented by the Rev. Donald Mcleod, a Church of Scotland minister in Glasgow. By 1840, Anglican clergy developed a sense of separation between themselves and the secular world, one outward symbol of this was the adoption of distinctive clerical dress. This had started with the coat and white necktie which had been worn for some decades. By the 1880s this had been transmuted into the clerical collar, for when the laity began to turn down their collars, the clergy also took up the mode. In the 1960s, many clergy who lived in countries where Catholicism was the dominant religion, in the Reformed tradition, which stresses preaching as a central concern, pastors often don preaching tabs, which project from their clerical collar. Methodist and Lutheran clergy also sometimes attach preaching bands to their clerical collars, among the Eastern Orthodox Church and Eastern Catholic Churches a band collarette with no notch in front may be worn by seminarians, although the norm is still a standard clerical collar. However, as the cassock is more commonly, if not mandatorily, worn to classes, often a white shirt will suffice. Eastern deacons and sometimes subdeacons, but rarely readers or clerics, also wear a collar, with subdeacons and readers often having a style with no notch. Also many Pentecostal and non-denominational Christian, and others wear collars, in the Roman Catholic tradition, major seminarians, after receiving admission to candidacy, often wear clericals in the seminary and/or in their dioceses. In the United Kingdom, clerical collars have been referred to as dog collars since the mid-nineteenth century. The term Roman collar is equivalent to clerical collar and does not necessarily mean that the wearer is Roman Catholic. Members of religious orders will often wear a Brothers Collar or Brothers Collarette which is similar to a typical clerical collar. Some Unitarian Universalist ministers choose to wear a collar along with a stole

Ordination
–
Ordination is the process by which individuals are consecrated, that is, set apart as clergy to perform various religious rites and ceremonies. The process and ceremonies of ordination vary by religion and denomination, one who is in preparation for, or who is undergoing the process of ordination is sometimes called an ordinand. The liturgy used at an ordination is sometimes referred to as an ordination, the tradition of the ordained monastic community began with the Buddha, who established orders of monks and later of nuns. The procedure of ordination in Buddhism is laid down in the Vinaya, permission was granted in 822 CE, seven days after Saicho died. The platform was finished in 827 CE at Enryaku-ji temple on Mount Hiei, pabbajja is an ordination procedure for novice Buddhist monks in the Theravada tradition. The legitimacy of fully ordained nuns has become a significant topic of discussion in recent years, however th 14th Dalai Lama has endeavored for many years to improve this situation. In Medieval Sōtō Zen, a tradition of ordination was developed to give the laity access to Zen funeral rites. Chinese Ch’an monastic codes, from which Japanese Sōtō practices were derived, contain only monastic funeral rites, to solve this problem, the Sōtō school developed the practice of ordaining laypeople after death, thus allowing monastic funeral rites to be used for them as well. The Buddhist ordination tradition of the New Kadampa Tradition-International Kadampa Buddhist Union is not the traditional Buddhist ordination and he is said to view them as a “practical condensation” of the 253 Vinaya vows of fully ordained monks. There are also no instructions and guidelines for the behaviour of monks. Because the behaviour of monks and nuns is not clearly defined “each Resident Teacher developed his or her own way of ‘disciplining’ monks, there are three degrees of ordination, deacon, presbyter, and bishop. Both bishops and presbyters are priests and have authority to celebrate the Eucharist, Ordination of a bishop is performed by several bishops, ordination of a priest or deacon is performed by a single bishop. The ordination of a new bishop is called a consecration. Many ancient sources specify that at least three bishops are necessary to consecrate another, e. g, only a person ordained to the priesthood may administer certain sacraments. The Catholic Church teaches that one bishop is sufficient to consecrate a new bishop validly, in most Christian denominations that retain the practice of ordination, only an already ordained bishop or the equivalent may ordain bishops, priests, and deacons. However, Canon Law requires that bishops always be consecrated with the mandate of the Roman Pontiff, moreover, at least three bishops are to perform the consecration, although the Apostolic See may dispense from this requirement in extraordinary circumstances. Those married deacons who become widowers have the possibility of seeking ordination to the priesthood in exceptional cases, the Roman Catholic Church has never recognized Anglican orders as valid. Anglicanism recognizes Roman Catholic and Orthodox ordinations, hence, clergy converting to Anglicanism are not re-ordained, some Eastern Orthodox churches recognize Roman Catholic ordinations while others re-ordain Roman Catholic clergy who convert
