Mass For Various Needs or Occasions

Entrance Antiphon (Cf. Eph 1: 9-10)
God has made known to us the mystery of his will,

to bring together all things in Christ,

all things in heaven and on earth in him.

Collect
O God, who in your wonderful providence

decreed that Christ’s kingdom

should be extended throughout the earth

and that all should become partakers of his saving redemption,

grant, we pray, that your Church

may be the universal sacrament of salvation

and that Christ may be revealed to all

as the hope of the nations and their Savior.

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

God, for ever and ever.

Prayers Over the Offerings
Look upon the offerings of the people consecrated to you,

O merciful God,

and, through the power of this Sacrament,

grant that the multitude of those who believe in you

may constantly be made a chosen race,

a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people of your own.

Through Christ our Lord.

Communion Antiphon (Rev 22: 17, 20)
The Spirit and the bride say: Come.

Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.

Prayer after Communion
O God, who constantly feed and strengthen the Church

with your Sacraments,

grant to us,

who have been nourished at the heavenly table,

that, by obeying your teachings of love,

we may become for the human family

a life-giving leaven and a means to salvation.

Through Christ our Lord.
