Hello. I am trying to locate a prayer I saw in the back of a book that was handed out at the Latin Mass last week. Latin - English Booklet Missal (for praying the traditional mass). It was something like “Prayer for Profanity”. It looked interesting, and I just happen to be struggling with using, um, less than wholesome words at times. I meant to try to take a picture of the page after the mass, but I forgot. I thought I’d be able to locate it online easily, but I was wrong. Any help would be appreciated. If not, I’ll maybe I will stop by the church office and see if the secretary can help me out with getting a copy of that page. I have no idea when the next Latin Mass will occur.
 
You could try praying the little office for purity of mind and spirit.
God bless.
 
I believe I have an answer to my query. My wife received a reply from a priest whom she asked. He pointed her to a message entitled “An Act of Reparation for Profane Language”, which are The Divine Praises. Further description stated:

“Did you know The Divine Praises are an Act of Reparation for Profane Language?”

“It was composed in a slightly shorter form by Luigi Felici, a Jesuit priest, in 1797, as a prayer to make reparation for blasphemy and profane language . You can recite it privately (or in group settings other than during the Benediction) for this purpose as a great way to show God, the Holy Family, and the Angels and Saints thanksgiving and praise.”

An Act of Reparation for Profane Language

Blessed be God.
Blessed be His holy name.
Blessed be Jesus Christ, true God and true man.
Blessed be the name of Jesus.
Blessed be His most Sacred Heart.
Blessed be Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
Blessed be the great Mother of God, Mary most holy.
Blessed be her holy and immaculate conception.
Blessed be her glorious Assumption.
Blessed be the name of Mary, virgin and mother.
Blessed be St. Joseph, her most chaste spouse.
Blessed be God in His angels and in His saints.

I am pretty sure this is what I saw in back of that Latin Mass Missal.
