    Mass for unity of the Church

    CATEGORY: SESSIUNCULUM, WDTPRS — Fr. John Zuhlsdorf @ 8:58 am

     

    Benedict XVIIn the 1962 typical edition of the Roman Missal there is a votive Mass for the Unity of the Church. 

    In light of the meetings involving the emanations of penumbras of the SSPX movement, I will share with you today the

    COLLECT
    Deus, qui errata corrigis,
    et dispersa congregas,
    et congregata conservas:
    quaesumus, super populum christianum
    tuae unionis gratiam clementer infunde:
    ut, divisione reiecta,
    vero pastori Ecclesiae tuae se uniens,
    tibi digne valeat famulari.

     

    LITERAL TRANSLATION
    O God, Thou who dost correct errors,
    and who both gather the scattered,
    and preserve what has been gathered:
    we beseech Thee, kindly pour out
    upon the Christian people the grace of Thy union;
    so that, once the division is rejected,
    uniting itself to the true pastor of the Church
    it may may able to serve Thee worthily.
