CollectOct 16, 2015

WDTPRS – 21st Sunday after Pentecost (1962): I am horrified when I hear the modernists say…

Familiam tuam, quaesumus, Domine, continua pietate custodi: ut a cunctis adversitatibus, te protegente, sit libera; et bonis actibus tuo nomini sit devota.
Literal rendering

Guard your family, we beseech you, O Lord, with continual mercy, so that that (family) may be free from all adversities as You are protecting it, and in good acts may be devoted in Your Name.

Let’s have a look at the Collect for the upcoming Sunday in the TLM – 1962 Missale Romanum. This a portion from my article for The Wanderer.

Post CommunionOct 22, 2006

29th Sunday of Ordinary Time: POST COMMUNION (1)

Fac nos, quaesumus, Domine, caelestium rerum frequentatione proficere, ut et temporibus beneficiis adiuvemur, et erudiamur aeternis.
Literal rendering

We beseech thee, O Lord, make us to make progress by a frequent use of heavenly things, so that we may both be sustained with temporal beneficial helps, and also be polished by the eternal.

What Does the Prayer Really Say? 29th Sunday of Ordinary Time ORIGINALLY PRINTED IN The Wanderer in 2003 You might recall reading about the rather recently established “permission” for priests holding the relevant documents (“celebrets”) issued by the Holy See to use the 1962 Missale Romanum in the Basilica of St. Peter in Rome. The present Archpriest of the Basilica…
