Masses and Prayers for Various Circumstances and Masses for the Dead, I. %PDF-1.7 Regarding procedures to be followed in this matter, the following should be followed: In the first place, a detailed preliminary proposal should be set before the Apostolic See, so that, after the necessary faculty has been granted, the detailed working out of the individual points of adaptation may proceed. In setting forth its instructions for the revision of the Order of Mass, the Second Vatican Council, using the same words as did St. Pius V in the Apostolic Constitution Quo primum, by which the Missal of Trent was promulgated in 1570, also ordered, among other things, that some rites be restored to the original norm of the holy Fathers.[11] From the fact that the same words are used it can be seen how both Roman Missals, although separated by four centuries, embrace one and the same tradition. The commemoration of the dead (Memento) and the Nobis quoque peccatoribus (Though we are sinners) are appropriately assigned to one or other of the concelebrants, who speaks them aloud alone, with hands extended. Moreover, it is unlawful to substitute other, non-biblical texts for the readings and responsorial Psalm, which contain the word of God.[62].

[140] For blessing objects that are designed for liturgical use in churches, cf. At the Funeral Mass there should, as a rule, be a short homily, but never a eulogy of any kind. The gestures and posture of the priest, the deacon, and the ministers, as well as those of the people, ought to contribute to making the entire celebration resplendent with beauty and noble simplicity, so that the true and full meaning of the different parts of the celebration is evident and that the participation of all is fostered. 93-98; for the manner of joining certain blessings and the crowning of an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary with the Mass, cf.

Its riches are of benefit to the universal Church, so that were they to be lost, the Church would be seriously harmed. [54] Its purpose, however, depends on the time it occurs in each part of the celebration. It is for the priest celebrant to direct this prayer from the chair. In accomplishing this task, it is expedient to take account of the different literary genres used at Mass, such as the presidential prayers, the antiphons, the acclamations, the responses, the litanies of supplication, and so on. The Church offers the Eucharistic Sacrifice of Christs Passover for the dead so that, since all the members of Christs body are in communion with each other, the petition for spiritual help on behalf of some may bring comforting hope to others. stream 23. 128. When the Entrance chant is concluded, the priest stands at the chair and, together with the whole gathering, makes the Sign of the Cross. The priest purifies the chalice at the credence table or at the altar. 379. 32. Other types of sacred music, in particular polyphony, are in no way excluded, provided that they correspond to the spirit of the liturgical action and that they foster the participation of all the faithful.

At the end the people make the acclamation, Amen. 50. If Communion is given only under the species of bread, the priest raises the host slightly and shows it to each, saying, Corpus Christi (The Body of Christ). [18], Above all, the Second Vatican Council, which urged that more perfect form of participation in the Mass by which the faithful, after the priests Communion, receive the Lords Body from the same Sacrifice,[19] called for another desire of the Fathers of Trent to be realized, namely that for the sake of a fuller participation in the holy Eucharist the faithful present at each Mass should communicate not only by spiritual desire but also by sacramental reception of the Eucharist.[20], 14. 7. 309.
