Ordo Missae

The Ordo Missae is the structured order of the Catholic Mass, outlining each step of the worship service. It includes key parts like the Introductory Rites, the Liturgy of the Word (readings and prayers), the Liturgy of the Eucharist (sharing Communion), and the Concluding Rites. This organized sequence guides the priest and congregation through worship, emphasizing reverence, reflection, and community. The Ordo Missae helps ensure the Mass is consistent worldwide, fostering unity and meaningful participation in the sacred celebration of the Christian Eucharist.
