WDTPRS – 20th WEEK after Pentecost: Quiet is a hallmark of the holy.

Largire, quaesumus, Domine, fidelibus tuis indulgentiam placatus et pacem: ut pariter ab omnibus mundentur offensis, et secura tibi mente deserviant.
Literal rendering

Having been appeased, impart to Your faithful, O Lord, we beseech You, remission and peace: so that in an equal measure they may be cleansed from all sins, and may zealously serve You with a mind free from anxiety.

This year, 2025, the 20th Sunday after Pentecost gave way to the Feast of Christ the King, since it was the last Sunday of October. Hence, we don’t get to hear the Collect until a day during the week when we don’t have a saint to celebrate. Let’s give it some TLC.

WDTPRS – 28th Ordinary Sunday (Novus Ordo): Authentic “walking together”

Tua nos, quaesumus, Domine, gratia semper et praeveniat et sequatur, ac bonis operibus iugiter praestet esse intentos.
Literal rendering

We beg, O Lord, that Your grace may always both go before and follow after us, and hence continuously keep us intent upon good works.

One of my “classic” WDTPRS posts, but appropriate given all the gas right now about “walking together”. This is about God’s walking together with us in the deepest sense… the one which can bring us to salvation instead of virtue signaling. The elegant Collect for the 28th Ordinary Sunday has been used for centuries on the 16th Sunday after Pentecost…

28th Sunday of Ordinary Time: POST COMMUNION (1)

Maiestatem tuam, Domine, suppliciter deprecamur, ut, sicut nos Corporis et Sanguinis sacrosancti pascis alimento, ita divinae naturae facias esse consortes.
Literal rendering

We suppliantly beseech your majesty, O Lord, that, just as you feed us now upon the provisions of the most holy Body and Blood, just so you may make us to be the partakers of the divine nature.

Prayer over the OfferingsOct 15, 2006

28th Sunday of Ordinary Time: SUPER OBLATA (2)

Suscipe, Domine, fidelium preces cum oblationibus hostiarum, ut, per haec piae devotionis officia, ad caelestem gloriam transeamus.
Literal rendering

Take up, O Lord, the prayers of the faithful with offerings of sacrificial victims so that, through these services of dutiful devotedness, we may pass over unto heavenly glory. In 1985 the Association for English Worship (AEW) made a booklet with some possible translations, comparing them to the ICEL version. For the most part the AEW provides a …
