I'm surprised as no contest is giving in the rules nor is there any indication of what skill to use. Looking further, I see that the Saintly orders have "reconsecrate talisman" blessings which would involve the use [scripture] ability.
Since the contest is trivial, I wouldn't bother rolling for it unless there were dramatic reasons as to why the liturgist could possibly fail.

The rulebook states "An order liturgist can hold a special worship ceremony to reconsecrate the talismans. Fighting orders, for example, always hold a special worship ceremony before they enter combat, to ensure that all the members' orderly spells are available" (HQ p161). Hence the liturgists should have worship rituals as often as needed.
