Post-Consecration Epiclesis

Also known as:

Supplice Te Rogamus, Command these Offerings

Part of the Canon of the Mass, said by the celebrant, after the Supra Quae and before the Commemoration of the Dead.

Servers should make the sign of the cross at "all heavenly benediction"

All servers should be kneeling during the Post Consecration Epiclesis. The acolyte is standing and pointing the missal for the celebrant.

Bowing, with hands joined, he continues:

WE humbly beseech thee, Almighty God, command these offerings to be brought by the hands of thy holy Angel to thine altar on high, in sight of thy divine majesty; that all we who at this partaking of the altar shall receive the most sacred Body and Blood of thy Son,

He stands upright again and signs himself with the Sign of the Cross, saying:

may be fulfilled with all heavenly benediction and grace.

He joins his hands.
