PRAYER FOR POPE BENEDICT XVI
Lord,
source of eternal life and truth; give to your shepherd, Benedict, a spirit of courage and right judgment, a spirit of knowledge
and love. By governing with fidelity those entrusted to his care, may he, as successor to the Apostle Peter and Vicar of Christ,
build your Church into a sacrament of unity, love and peace for all the world. Amen.
V. Let us pray for Benedict, the Pope.
R. May the Lord
preserve him, give him long life, Make him blessed upon the earth, and not hand
Him to the power of his enemies.
V. May your hand be upon your holy servant.
R. And upon your Son, whom you have anointed.
Our Father...Hail
Mary...Glory Be...

Holy Father.
THE PRAYERS AT MASS
All Catholic parishes in the United States, for the first time in about forty years,
are, using a new English translation of all the prayers. These prayers are found in The Roman Missal, the large book that
we are accustomed to seeing the priest use at our Eucharistic liturgies.
In the early part of this century, the late Blessed John Paul II called for the original Latin Missal (the official
prayer book for Mass for the entire Catholic Church worldwide) to be re-translated into the various languages prayed throughout
the world. In particular, he and other Church leaders felt that the English translation could be improved. He called for new
translations that would be much more like the Latin texts upon which they are based, so that all Catholics throughout the
world would become more closely united by praying translations that were closer to the original.
The words that we pray at Mass express our beliefs; it is important that the translations capture and express these
beliefs clearly. The translation process has come to a culmination now, as we begin using this new translation at Mass.
