Votive Mass of The Holy Spirit
Votive Mass of The Holy Spirit
When the people are gathered, the Priest approaches the altar with the
ministers while the Entrance
Chant is sung.
When he has arrived at the altar, after making a profound bow with the
ministers, the Priest
venerates the altar with a kiss and, if appropriate, incenses the cross and the
altar. Then, with the ministers,
he goes to the chair.
When the Entrance Chant is concluded, the Priest and the faithful, standing,
sign themselves with
the Sign of the Cross, while the Priest, facing the people, says:
+ In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Then the Priest, extending his hands, greets the people, saying:
The Priest, or a Deacon or another minister, may very briefly introduce the
faithful to the Mass of
the day.

Then follows the Penitential Act, to which the Priest invites the faithful,
saying:
Amen.
The Kyrie, eleison (Lord, have mercy) invocations follow, unless they have
just occurred in a
formula of the Penitential Act.
The celebrant intones the Gloria in excelsis (Glory to God), then the people
follow.
Priest:
People: Amen.

LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST
When all this has been done, the Offertory Chant begins. Meanwhile, the
ministers place the
corporal, the purificator, the chalice, the pall, and the Missal on the altar.
It is desirable that the faithful express their participation by making an
offering, bringing forward
bread and wine for the celebration of the Eucharist and perhaps other gifts to
relieve the needs of the
Church and of the poor.
The Priest, standing at the altar, takes the paten with the bread and holds
it slightly raised above
the altar with both hands, saying in a low voice:
If, however, the Offertory Chant is not sung, the Priest may speak these
words aloud; at the end,
the people may acclaim:
The Deacon, or the Priest, pours wine and a little water into the chalice,
saying quietly:
The Priest then takes the chalice and holds it slightly raised above the
altar with both hands, saying
in a low voice:
If appropriate, he also incenses the offerings, the cross, and the altar. A
Deacon or other minister
then incenses the Priest and the people.
Then the Priest, standing at the side of the altar, washes his hands,
saying quietly:
Standing at the middle of the altar, facing the people, extending and then
joining his hands, he
says:
People: Amen.
PREFACE II OF THE HOLY SPIRIT: The action of the Spirit in the Church.
Priest: It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God.
He joins his hands and, holding them extended over the offerings, says:
He joins his hands and makes the Sign of the Cross once over the bread
and chalice together,
saying:
In the formulas that follow, the words of the Lord should be pronounced
clearly and distinctly, as
the nature of these words requires.
He takes the bread and, holding it slightly raised above the altar,
continues:
He shows the consecrated host to the people, places it again on the paten,
and genuflects in
adoration.
After this, he continues:
He takes the chalice and, holding it slightly raised above the altar,
continues:
He bows slightly.
(to be sung)
Aming ipinahahayag
na namatay ang iyong Anak
nabuhay bilang Mesiyas
at magbabalik sa wakas
para mahayag sa lahat.
Then the Priest, with hands extended, says:
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 Blessed Joseph her most chaste spouse.
with your blessed Apostles and glorious Martyrs
and with all the Saints,
on whose constant intercession in your presence
we rely for unfailing help.
He takes the chalice and the paten with the host and, raising both, he says:
Amen.
After the chalice and paten have been set down, the Priest, with hands joined,
says:
(to be sung)
Ama namin, sumasalangit ka.
Sambahin ang ngalan mo.
Mapasaamin ang kaharian mo.
Sundin ang loob mo
dito sa lupa para nang sa langit.
(to be sung)
Sapagka’t iyo ang kaharian
at ang kapangyarihan,
at ang kapurihan, magpakailanman. Amen.
Then the Priest, with hands extended, says aloud:
Amen.
The Priest, turned towards the people, extending and then joining his hands,
adds:
And all offer one another a sign, in keeping with local customs, that
expresses peace, communion,
and charity. The Priest gives the sign of peace to a Deacon or minister.
Then he takes the host, breaks it over the paten, and places a small piece
in the chalice, saying
quietly:
