🙏 Why does the Traditional Latin Mass pray for peace just before Holy Communion?
After the Fraction, the priest proclaims, “The peace of the Lord be always with you.” This is not merely peace among men. It is the supernatural peace Christ won through His Sacrifice on Calvary, the same Sacrifice made present upon the altar.
The priest then places the sacred Particle into the chalice. Bowing before the Blessed Sacrament, he invokes the Lamb of God three times: twice asking for mercy and finally asking for peace.
🕊 These prayers prepare the soul to receive Christ with contrition, humility, and trust.
