WDTPRS – 15th Sunday after Pentecost: The Church is taking on water. Is she sinking?

Ecclesiam tuam, Domine, miseratio continuata mundet et muniat: et quia sine te non potest salva consistere; tuo semper munere gubernetur.

Literal rendering

O God, through whom to us come both redemption and adoption is guaranteed, kindly give attention to your beloved children, so that both true freedom and the inheritance everlasting may be bestowed on those believing in Christ.

The Collect for the 23rd Ordinary Sunday – this Sunday – was not in any pre-Conciliar edition of the Roman Missal, but it was in the 8th century Gelasian Sacramentary in a section for evening prayers during Paschaltide. You have to wonder how they – the cutting and pasting experts – made these decisions.

23rd Sunday of Ordinary Time: POST COMMUNION (1)

em Latin (2002 Missale Romanum): Da fidelibus tuis, Domine, quos et verbi tui et caelestis sacramenti pabulo nutris et vivificas, ita dilecti Filii tui tantis muneribus proficere, ut eius vitae semper consortes effici mereamur.

What Does The Prayer Really Say? 23rd Sunday Of Ordinary Time ORIGINALLY PRINTED IN The Wanderer in 2003 I made comments about the ungrammatical ICEL rendering of “all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father.” This incited various notes from readers, including that from Fr. PN via e-mail: “In reference to your recent column (August 21) you criticize the translation…
