Episode 4 – Hearts Raised in Supplication – A Biblical Way of Praying the Mass with Fr. Timothy Gallagher O.M.V.

We continue our conversation with Fr. Gallagher discussing the encouragements given by Venerable Bruno Lanteri in regards to a biblical way of praying the Mass. In this episode, Fr. Gallagher reflects on the Collect

Almighty and merciful God (we lift our heart to you, loving Father, who are infinitely powerful and whose mercy knows no limits),

graciously keep from us all adversity (we pray for freedom from physical, moral, and spiritual harm),

so that, unhindered in mind and body alike (not weighed down by burdens of mind and body),

we may pursue in freedom of heart (our hearts may be truly free to pursue what is most important: a great grace!)

the things that are yours (love of God, love of neighbor, doing God’s will, living our vocations, eternal life; we ask for freedom to live in the way God desires, in the light of his Word),

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
R. Amen.
