Votive Mass

Entrance Antiphon (Ps 110 (109): 4)
The Lord has sworn an oath he will not change:
You are a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchizedek.

Collect
O God, who for your glory
and the salvation of the human race
willed to establish Christ as the eternal High Priest,
grant that the people he has gained for you by his Blood
may, through their participation in his memorial,
experience the power of his Cross and Resurrection.
Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.

Grant us, O Lord, we pray,
that we may participate worthily in these mysteries,
for, whenever the memorial of this sacrifice is celebrated,
the work of our redemption is accomplished.
Through Christ our Lord.

Preface of the Most Holy Eucharist.

Communion Antiphon (1 Cor 11: 24-25)
This is the Body that will be given up for you;
this is the Chalice of the new covenant in my Blood, says the Lord;
do this, whenever you receive it in memory of me.

Prayer after Communion

We pray, O Lord, that through our partaking in this sacrifice,
which your Son commanded to be offered in his memory,
you may make us together with him
an everlasting oblation to you.
Through Christ our Lord.
