MXC: My earthly brothers have forsaken me: will you be my little brother?

[hyperdulia again]

Of course I'll be your little brother .

Yay!

But: you'd better remain edifying.

2. THE CANON

Oblation Of The Sacrifice

V. The Lord be with you.

R. And with your spirit.

V. Lift up your hearts.

R. We have lifted them up to the Lord.

V. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.

R. It is fitting and proper to do so.

COMMON PREFACE

I t is truly fitting and proper, right and profitable to

salvation that we should always and everywhere

give thanks to You, Lord, Holy Father, almighty and

everlasting God, through Christ our Lord. Through

whom the angels praise Your majesty, the Dominions

worship You, the Powers are in awe before You. The

heavens and the heavenly Hosts and the blessed Ser-

aphim join together in a hymn of praise. We pray You

that our voices, too, may be joined with theirs as we

sing with humble praise:

H OLY, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts. Heaven and earth

are full of Your glory. Hosanna in the highest!

(Isa. 6. 3.) - Blessed is He who comes in the name of

the Lord. Hosanna in the highest! (Matt. 21. 9.)

CANON OF THE MASS

OR OFFICIAL RULE OF THE GREAT SACRIFICIAL PRAYER

M ost merciful Father, we humbly

pray and implore You, through Jesus

Christ Your Son, to be pleased to receive

and bless these gifts, these presents,

these holy unblemished offerings.

W e offer them to You in the first place

for Your holy Catholic Church throughout

the whole world, be pleased to keep her

in peace, to watch over her, to gather her

in unity and to guide her, and also for Your

servant our Pope N., for our bishop N. and

all right believing teachers of the Catholic

apostolic faith.

R emember, Lord, your servants and hand-

maids N. and N. and all here present whose

faith and devotion are known to You. We

offer for them, or they themselves offer,

this sacrifice of praise for themselves and

all their own, for the redeeming of their souls,

for their hope of safety and salvation; and

they now send up their prayers to You, the

eternal, living and true God.

* Proper Communicantes on page 818

B eing in fellowship we reverently bring to mind,

firstly the glorious Mary, ever Virgin, Mother of'

our God and Lord Jesus Christ...

* and then blessed Joseph, spouse of the same

Virgin, and Your blessed Apostles and martyrs

Peter and Paul, Andrew, James, John, Thomas,

James, Phillip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Simon

and Jude, Linus, Cletus, Clement, Sixtus, Cor-

nelius, Cyprian, Lawrence, Chrysogonus, John

and Paul, Cosmas and Damian, and all Your

saints: grant by their merits and prayers that

at all times we may be defended and helped by

Your protection. Through the same Christ our

Lord. Amen.

[Donna]

T his, then, is our dutiful offering which, we,

Your servants and Your whole family, make

to You, entreating You to accept it with favor.

Order our days in Your peace, and cause us

to be saved from everlasting doom and to be

numbered among Your chosen ones. Through

Christ our Lord. Amen.

B e pleased, O God, to bless this offering,

to accept it fully, to make it perfect and

worthy to please You, so that it may be-

come for us the Body and Blood of Your

dearly beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.

WHO the day before He suffered took bread

into His holy and venerable hands, and with

His eyes lifted up to heaven, to You, God,

His almighty Father, giving thanks to You,

He blessed, broke and gave it to His disciples,

saying: Take and eat you all of this,

FOR THIS IS MY BODY.

IN like manner, after He had supped,

taking also this glorious chalice into His

holy and venerable hands, again giving

thanks to You, He blessed and gave it to

His disciples, saying: Take and drink you

all of this,

FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,

OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL TESTAMENT:

THE MYSTERY OF FAITH: WHICH SHALL

BE SHED FOR YOU AND FOR MANY UNTO

THE REMISSION OF SINS. As often as you

shall do these things, you shall do them in

memory of Me.

CANON

(conclusion)

W herefore, Lord, in memory of the

blessed Passion of the same Christ,

Your Son, our Lord, of His resurrec-

tion from among the dead and of His

ascension to heavenly glory, we Your

servants and with us all Your holy peo-

ple offer to Your sovereign majesty,

from among Your gifts bestowed upon us,

a victim perfect, holy and spotless, the

holy bread of everlasting life and the chalice

of everlasting salvation.

B e pleased to look upon these offerings

with a favorable countenance; accept them

as You were pleased to accept the offerings

of Your servant Abel the righteous, the sac-

rifice of our father Abraham, and that of Mel-

chisedech, Your high priest, a holy sacrifice,

a spotless victim.

W e humbly implore You, almighty God,

bid these offerings to be carried by the

hands of Your holy angel to Your altar on

high, in the sight of Your divine majesty,

that all who are partakers at the altar of

the precious Body and Blood of Your Son,

may be filled with all heavenly grace and

blessing. Through the same Christ our Lord.

Amen.

R emember, also, Lord, Your servants and

handmaids N. and N. who are gone hence

before us, marked with the sign of faith, and

sleep the sleep of peace.

To them, Lord, and to all that rest in Christ,

grant, we implore You, a place of happiness,

light and peace. Through the same Christ our

Lord. Amen.

T o us, also, Your sinful servants, who hope

in the multitude of Your mercies, be pleased

to grant some part and fellowship with Your

holy apostles and martyrs; with John, Stephen,

Matthias, Barnabas, Ignatius, Alexander, Marcel-

linus, Peter, Felicity, Perpetua, Agatha, Lucy,

Agnes, Cecily, Anastasia, and with all Your

saints. We pray You admit us into their com-

pany, not weighing our merits, but bestowing

upon us Your own free pardon. Through Christ

our Lord.

T HROUGH Him, O Lord, You ever create these

good things, and You hallow, quicken and bless

them as gifts for us.

(the minor elevation)[

B Y HIM AND WITH HIM AND IN HIM ARE EVER

GIVEN TO YOU, GOD THE FATHER ALMIGHTY,

IN THE UNITY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT ALL HONOUR

AND GLORY,

FOR EVER AND EVER.

R. Amen.

Donna, where can I get one of the 1962 St. Andrew's Missals?

--Jessica

[Donna]

Hi, Jessica.

I typed in 'St. Andrew Daily Missal' on the Google search and there's quite a few hits. The first ones were 'Aquinas and More' and 'Catholic Treasures'. It's published (at least the one I saw) by Bonaventure, and was $45.00.

Worth every penny.
