SACRED MYSTERIES (YOUTH ROOM)
THE LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST (PART 4 OF THE MASS)
And now we come to the shortest section of the Mass, the Closing Rites.
Don't blink, or you'll miss it!
The priest says: "The Lord be with you," and you know the answer: "And with your spirit."
The priest then gives a blessing, and the priest or deacon gives a dismissal.
That's it.
We spent two days on the Liturgy of the Eucharist, and two minutes on the Closing Rites.
Here is a link to the 11 x 17 cards in PDF format.
And now, to solidify it ... let's have a test! Or better yet, let's play Jeopardy!
