Mass responses in English and Latin

The Greeting

Celebrant: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Congregation: Amen.

Celebrant: The Lord be with you.

(or another approved greeting)

Congregation: And with your spirit.

I confess to almighty God

and to you, my brothers and sisters,

that I have greatly sinned,

in my thoughts and in my words,

in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,

(And, striking their breast, they say):

through my fault, through my fault,

through my most grievous fault;

therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin,

all the Angels and Saints,

and you, my brothers and sisters,

to pray for me to the Lord our God.

Have mercy on us, 0 Lord.

For we have sinned against you.

Show us, 0 Lord, your mercy.

And grant us your salvation.
