Turning Together Towards the Lord

Conversi ad Dominum - Turn to the Lord - Towards the Crucified

Last January on the Feast of the Epiphany as Pope Benedict was preparing to celebrate the Mass standing together with the congregation turned towards the fresco of Michelangelo's Last Judgment in the Sistine Chapel, his personal secretary was asked to explain this. As Msgr. Marini explained “this means that at some points the Pope will turn towards the Crucified, thus underlining the correct orientation of the Eucharistic celebration. This is not about turning the back to the people, but about assuming the same orientation as the assembly, which precisely looks toward the Crucified.”

Fr. Eric prayed the Eucharistic Prayer ad Dominum during Mass at St. Benedict's during Advent and Christmas.

Starting January 9, Fr. Eric plans to continue praying ad Dominum for the 5:00pm and 10:30am Sunday Masses and to return to the Eucharistic Prayer prayed toward the congregation for the 8:00am Sunday Masses for Ordinary Time.

To find out more about the meaning of ad Dominum, this common direction of liturgical prayer, read Fr. Eric's five bulletin inserts. Click on the dates below for each week's insert.
