EpiclesisIn Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Eastern-rite Catholic churches, and Latin-rite (i.e., Western) Catholic churches, the epiclesis (also sometimes spelled epiklesis, since it is a transliterated Greek word) is that part of the prayer of consecration of the Eucharistic elements (bread and wine) in which the priest invokes the Holy Spirit. Eastern Orthodox theologians hold that the epiclesis is essential to the eucharist -- without it, the miraculous transubstantiation will not occur.
