THE RITE The Penitential Rite follows the entrance procession and the greeting. The priest's opening comments generally transition directly into the Penitential Rite. The available forms are:
All: I confess to almighty God, and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have sinned through my own fault, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done, and in what I have failed to do; and I ask blessed Mary, ever virgin, all the angels and saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord, our God.
Priest: Lord, we have sinned against you: Lord, have mercy. Congregation: Lord, have mercy. Priest: Lord, show us your mercy and love. Congregation: And grant us your salvation.
Minister: (The priest prays a short, spontaneous invocation): Lord, have mercy. Congregation: Lord, have mercy. Minister: (Second invocation): Christ, have mercy. Congregation: Christ, have mercy. Minister: (Third invocation): Lord, have mercy. Congregation: Lord, have mercy. The Penitential Rite always concludes:
The Kyrie Eleison follows the Penitential rite, unless Form C is used, because Form C incorporates the Kyrie. The Gloria follows the Kyrie, and the Introductory Rites conclude with the Collect . SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
