Mass For Various Needs or Occasions

Entrance Antiphon (Cf. Wis 11: 23, 24, 26)
You have mercy on all, O Lord,

and despise nothing that you have made.

You overlook people’s sins,

to bring them to repentance,

and you spare them, for you are the Lord our God.

Collect
Graciously hear the prayers of those who call upon you,

we ask, O Lord,

and forgive the sins of those who confess to you,

granting us in your kindness both pardon and peace.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,

who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

God, for ever and ever.

Prayer Over the Offerings
We offer you, O Lord,

the sacrifice of conciliation and praise,

that, being moved to compassion,

you may both pardon our offenses

and direct our wavering hearts.

Through Christ our Lord.

Communion Antiphon  (Lk 5:10)

There will be rejoicing among the angels of God

over one sinner who repents.

Prayer after Communion
Grant us, merciful God,

that, receiving in this gift the forgiveness of sins,

we may be able by your grace

to avoid sinning from now on

and to serve you in sincerity of heart.

Through Christ our Lord.
