Priest: O God, who willed that your Word

in the womb of the Virgin Mary,
grant, we pray, that we, who confess our Redeemer to be God and man,

Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.

**Creed**
The CREED is said. At the words and was incarnate all genuflect
Priest: Though the faithful obedience of the Blessed Virgin Mary, God takes
flesh among us. The mystery of the incarnation calls us to our loving
Father through the incarnate Son.

fabric of our daily lives, made holy by your Son, our brother in the faith, who
lives and reigns for ever and ever.

Preface
Priest: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Priest: Lift up your hearts.
All: We lift them up to the Lord.
Priest: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
All: It is right and just.
Priest: It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks, Lord, holy Father,
almighty and eternal God, through Christ our Lord. For the
Virgin Mary heard with faith that the Christ was to be born
among men and for men’s sake
by the overshadowing power of the Holy Spirit. Lovingly she
bore him in her immaculate womb, that the promises to the
children of Israel might come about and the hope of nations be
accomplished beyond all telling.
Through him the host of Angels adores your majesty and
rejoices in your presence for ever. May our voices, we pray,
join with theirs in one chorus of exultant praise, as we acclaim:
------
C: Please kneel.
R: We proclaim your death O Lord, and profess Your resurrection until You come
again.
Communion Rite
Priest: At the Savior’s command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to
say:
**Our Father**
**Lamb of God**
All: Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world.
Have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world.
Have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world.
Grant us peace.
C: Please kneel.
All: Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof;
But only say The Word and my soul shall be healed.
For those who cannot receive communion, let us together pray the Act of Spiritual
Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are in the Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all
things, and I long for You in my soul. Since I cannot now receive You Sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. As though You have already come, I embrace
You and unite myself entirely to You; never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen
**Communion songs
C: (after all received communion) Please kneel. Prayer for Peace by Pope Francis -
Altogether
All: Amen!
SOLEMN BLESSING
