Can someone please provide me a transcript of the prayers recited by the parishoners during the Eucharist? The people at my church are the world’s greatest mumblers and I can never decipher what they say.
 
Don’t they have missals in your church so you can read and follow along?
 
Oh, thank you for asking this - my parish is very good at mumbling, too. :o

The missalette only gives the gospels, Alleluia and the Creed.

Those prayers are not listed in the Missals.

I did manage to find “Holy Holy” (“Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might…”) but many of the responses to the priests words I can’t make out. One is a few verses long, maybe three or four.
 
It’s been a while since I needed to actually read one, but the missals we used always had all parts that needed to be said by the congregation listed in there, including some of the eucharistic prayers that the priest might say (they have many more available to them then just what is printed in the missals). Of course, they are not always organized the best, as you had to flip from the section where all the readings were printed to the section that held the parts of mass that don’t change daily, like the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Which prayers were you thinking of?

You may already be aware of this, but the site you posted is Anglican.

If your parish doesn’t provide a detailed “Order of the Mass,” you might want to get one from a Catholic bookstore. (I think they assume that everyone knows the responses when that isn’t the case, especially children, new converts, and immigrants. Bad assumption. In my parish, you don’t even have the readings to follow unless you bring them from home; that cuts out the hard of hearing and anybody who prefers “visual” learning to oral.)

I wasn’t. Thanks for pointing it out. I was baffled by the use of the word “president.” 😃

So no one here knows the prayers?
 
The lack of responses to this thread are unbelievable. No one here can post the prayers spoken by the parishoners during the Eucharist?

Unbelievable!
 
During the Elevation of the host and then the Cup during the Consecration, I have heard Spanish speaking folks pray a prayer out loud. They say :“Senior mio,Deus Mio”-My Lord and my God. This must come from a tradition in their homeland. It had not been a tradition at our church.
 
In the Traditional Latin Mass it is apprpriate to say My Lord and My God when the Precious Body and Blood is elevated.

For heaven’s sake, go to your local Catholic bookstore, or any of a hundred internet sites and pick up a July edition of The Magnificat. There’s a whole section devoted to the Mass. The other option is to pick up a copy of ANY missal (St. Joseph’s, etc). If you’re too cheap for that try this:
latinliturgy.com/nomass.html
and print out what you need.

No, actually, I read that right in my Daily Roman Missal. I’ve been saying it since childhood and couldn’t be more non-Hispanic.

In the past everyone would say this quietly to themselves. These folks say it out loud-it can be distracting during the quiet of the Consecration.

Well, I’ve never said it out loud, it’s more of a communication between myself and my Lord. I whisper it, but I’ve never heard it said out loud (guess I’m lucky?)

I’m not sure if it’s still the case, but it used to be indulgenced to silently say “Dominus meus et Deus meus” (My Lord and My God) at the elevations. Pope St. Pius X declared a partial indulgence attached to saying it daily, and a plenary indulgence to anyone saying it every day for a week, subject to the usual conditions. It was forbidden, however, to say the prayer out loud by Pope Pius XI 19 years later, in 1925.
 
I second the rpely saying to grab the Magnificat, and I would add to subscribe to it! It’s wonderful, and it does have the complete order of the Mass, including parts said by the Priest “inaudibly”, every month. Of course it has all the readings, meditations, morning and evening prayers (not the complete LOH).
