Third edition of the Roman Missal

The Introductory Rites

Greeting

Or:

The Priest greets the people using words of the great missionary Saint Paul, or
words addressed to harvesters in the Book of Ruth; the Bishop takes the words
of the Risen Christ. The people acknowledge the spirit of his ordination.

= The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ...

= Grace to you and peace ...

Romans 1:7

= The Lord be with you. + And with your spir- it.

Penitential Act

This communal act of penitence prepares us for the mystery of our redemption
and highlights Gods mercy overcoming human sin.

Brethren (brothers and sisters), let us acknowledge our sins,

and so prepare ourselves to celebrate the sacred mysteries.
A brief pause for silence follows. After this, all recite together the
formula of general confession:

I confess to almighty God

and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have greatly sinned,
1 Chronicles 21:8
in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
Luke 18:13

through my fault, through my fault,

through my most grievous fault;
Then they continue:

+ And grant us your sal- va- tion.

No Sign of the Cross is made, either by the priest or the people.

The Kyrie eleison invocations follow, unless they have just

occurred in another formula of the Penitential Act.

= Lord, have mercy. + Lord, have mercy.

= Christ, have mercy. + Christ, have mercy.
= Lord, have mercy. + Lord, have mercy.
+ Kyrie, eleison.
+ Christe, eleison.
+ Kyrie, eleison.

Gloria

Baruch 3:2

The Hymn of Praise echoes the song of the angels at the Nativity
of Christ (Luke 2:14), and it puts on our lips the words of John
the Baptist (John 1:29) and the praise of the Lamb from the book
of Revelation (15:3-4).

The Symbol, Profession of Faith, Creed

The Creed embodies the fullness of the Catholic faith, for this reason it
is also called the Symbol; it is a kind of sacrament in spoken form. A
statement of individual adherence to the Catholic faith, I believe also
expresses the faith of the one body of Christ.

I believe in one God,

the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.

Genesis 2:5
Colossians 1:16

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,

the Only Begotten Son of God,
John 3:16
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
John 1:3
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
At the words that follow, up to and including and became man, all bow.

and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,

he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
1 Corinthians 15:3-4
He ascended into heaven
Acts 1:9
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,

who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
2 Peter 1:21
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins Eph 4:5
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Invitation to Prayer

As the Church prepares to enter the Eucharistic Prayer, the Faithful

are called to offer themselves along with the Oblation on the altar.

Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),

that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father.

Sanctus

The Preface acclamation joins the voices of the Church on earth with
the heavenly liturgy. It joins the hymns of praise from Isaiah and the
Revelation as well as the Hosanna to the Son of David found in the
Passion narrative of the Gospel of Saint Matthew.

Preface Dialogue

The dialogue between priest and people intensifies. The lifting up of

hearts expresses the total gift of self necessary for the sacrifice.

In the presence of the Eucharistic Lord, the Church expresses Her faith in

The Communion Rite

From the time of the Apostles, the Christian Church has prayed
according to the Lords command, following the Gospel of Matthew and
concluding with the doxology from the first century Didache.

= At the Saviors command

and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say:
+ Our Father...
= Deliver us, Lord, we pray ...

Invitation to Communion

In preparation for Holy Communion, the priest presents the Blessed

Sacrament to the Faithful using words that echo John the Baptist
and the angel in the Book of Revelation. The response recalls the
healing of the centurions servant in Luke 7.

= Behold the Lamb of God,

John 1:29
behold him who takes away the sins of the world.
Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb.
Revelation 19:9
