Priest – Eucharistic Prayer III
All Kneel
CALLING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT:
You are indeed Holy, O Lord, and all you have created rightly gives
you praise,
For through your Son our Lord Jesus Christ, by the power and
working of the Holy Spirit,
You give life to all things and make them holy, and you never cease
to gather a people to yourself, so that from the rising of the sun to
its setting a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name.
(Stretches hands over gifts)
Therefore, O Lord, we humbly implore you: by the same Spirit
graciously make holy these gifts we have brought to you for
consecration, that they may become the Body and Blood of your
Son our Lord Jesus Christ, at whose command we celebrate these
mysteries.
26
CONSECRATION
For on the night he was betrayed he himself
took bread, and, giving you thanks, he said
the blessing, broke the bread and gave it to
his disciples, saying
(holds up the bread for the people)
Take this, all of you, and eat of it: for this
is my body, which will be given up for you.
27
In a similar way, when supper was ended, he took
the chalice, and, giving you thanks, he said the
blessing, and gave the chalice to his disciples
saying:
(holds up the cup for the people)
Take this, all of you, and drink from it, for this is
the chalice of my blood, the blood of the new
and eternal covenant, which will be poured out for
you and for many for the forgiveness of sins.
28
Do this in memory of me.
Priest: The mystery of faith
All Stand
All:
When we eat this Bread
and drink this Cup, we proclaim
your Death, O Lord, until you come
again.
29
MEMORIAL PRAYER
Therefore, O Lord, as we celebrate the memorial of the saving
Passion of your Son, his wondrous Resurrection and Ascension
into heaven, and as we look forward to his second coming, we
offer you in thanksgiving this holy and living sacrifice.
Look, we pray, upon this oblation of your Church and, recognizing
the sacrificial Victim by whose death you willed to reconcile us to
yourself, grant that we, who are nourished by the Body and Blood
of your Son and filled with his Holy Spirit, may become one body,
one spirit in Christ.
30
IN COMMUNION WITH THE SAINTS
May he make of us an eternal offering to you, so
that we may obtain an inheritance with your elect,
especially with the most Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of God, with your Apostles and glorious
Martyrs, with St. _____, and with all the Saints,
on whose constant intercession in your presence
we rely for unfailing help.
31
PRAYER FOR THE LIVING
May this Sacrifice of our reconciliation, we pray, O Lord,
advance the peace and salvation of all the world.
Be pleased to confirm in faith and charity your pilgrim
Church on earth,
with your servant Benedict, our Pope, and Richard our
Bishop, the Order of Bishops, all the clergy, and the
entire people you have gained for your own.
Listen graciously to the prayers of this family, whom you
have summoned before you: in your compassion, O
merciful Father, gather to yourself all your children
scattered throughout the world.
32
PRAYER FOR THE DEAD
To our departed brothers and sisters and to all who
were pleasing to you as their passing from this
life, give kind admittance to your kingdom.
There we hope to enjoy for ever the fullness of your
glory through Christ our Lord, through whom you
bestow on the world all that is good.

Him, O God almighty Father, in the

ever and ever.

As the Saviour’s command and formed by
divine teaching, we dare to say:
35
All: Our Father,
who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses, as we
forgive those who trespass against
us, and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Priest:
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil,
graciously grant peace in our day, that, by the
help of your mercy, we may be always free
from sin and safe from all distress, as we await
the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior,
Jesus Christ.
All: For the kingdom, the power, and the
glory are yours, now and forever. Amen
Rite of Peace
Priest: Lord Jesus Christ who said
to your Apostles: Peace I leave you, my

and ever.
