3. Ancestors should prepare incense sticks, firecrackers and offerings.

When the relevant personnel arrive at the ancestral temple (if there is no ancestral temple, it will be discussed separately), on auspicious occasions, the master of ceremonies will announce the ceremony of "recognizing the ancestors and returning to the ancestral home".

1, set off firecrackers, please give the genealogy.

2. Ancestors worship the heavens and the earth, and worship their ancestors according to the custom of their ancestral home.

1. Welcome words: welcome ×××× to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestral home. ...

2. Introduction: Brief introduction of ×× (ancestors) moving out.

(3) Confirmation: Which branch and generation of this family does XX belong to after confirmation (physical evidence can also be presented together) ... Now it is agreed that XX belongs to the clan.

(4) greetings (blessing ancestors and the whole family).

5. Place the stone tablet of God. After the ancestors moved out, they put the memorial tablet of their ancestors (or the memorial tablet of the deceased) into the shrine of the General Temple. In some places, due to the limitation of ancestral temple space, it is necessary for the deceased outstanding figures of the clan to enter the shrine, so this link is unnecessary and can be handled flexibly according to local customs.
