Liturgical Hints & Ideas:
During Ordinary Time we will highlight passages from the Sacramentary and other liturgical rubrics which are often overlooked or ignored. Be prepared for some surprises!
The Sacramentary offers three options for the Penitential Rite, all beginning with an introduction by the priest.
Option A continues with the Confiteor, "I confess to almighty God..." and the priest's absolution, "May almighty God have mercy on us..."
Then, because this litany was not included in the text of the Confiteor, the "Lord, have mercy" is prayed alternately by the priest and congregation.
Option B also has an unchanging form: "Lord, we have sinned against you: Lord, have mercy." "Lord, have mercy." "Lord, show us your mercy and love."
"And grant us your salvation."
Then follows the absolution.
Option C is the one in which the priest or deacon develops original invocations prior to each petition of "Lord, have mercy" or "Christ, have mercy."
The people respond appropriately.
The priest (not the deacon) then offers absolution.
It is important to realize that nowhere among these choices is there an option to abbreviate the Penitential Rite to merely the three-fold litany with congregational repetition.
Something must precede it!
