CALENDARIUM ROMANUM FORMA ORDINARIA, MEDITATIO, THE DAILY GOSPEL MEDITATIO, Roman Catholic Ordinary Calendar

“Do this in remembrance of me. For as often as you eat this Bread and drink this Cup, you proclaim my death, and you confess my resurrection”. Therefore, Master, we also, remembering His saving passion and life-giving cross, His three; day burial and resurrection from the dead, His ascension into heaven, and enthronement at Your right hand, God and Father, and His glorious and awesome second coming, we offer to You these gifts from Your own gifts in all and for all. We praise You, we bless You, we give thanks to You, and we pray to You, Lord our God. Therefore, most holy Master, we also, Your sinful and unworthy servants, whom You have made worthy to serve at Your holy altar, not because of our own righteousness (for we have not done anything good upon the earth), but because of Your mercy and compassion, which You have so richly poured upon us, we dare to approach Your holy altar, and bring forth the symbols of the holy Body and Blood of Your Christ. We pray to You and call upon You, O Holy of Holies, that by the favor of Your goodness, Your Holy Spirit may come upon us and upon the gifts here presented, to bless, sanctify, and make this bread to be the precious Body of our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ. (Deacon: Amen) and this cup to be the precious Blood of our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ. (Deacon: Amen) shed for the life and salvation of the world. (Deacon: Amen. Amen. Amen). Unite us all to one another who become partakers of the one Bread and the Cup in the communion of the one Holy Spirit. Grant that none of us may partake of the holy Body and Blood of Your Christ to judgment or condemnation; but that we may find mercy and grace with all the saints who through the ages have pleased You. … And grant that with one voice and one heart we may glorify and praise Your most honored and majestic name, of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and forever and to the ages of ages. Amen.
