Product Overview
Oremus (Latin for “Let Us Pray”) is not only a prayer book but also a tool for study, meditation, and reflection. This volume includes original English translations of more than 1,400 prayers used in the Roman Rite, the most common liturgy in the Catholic Church. Each day’s Mass includes three prayers: the Collect, the Prayer over the Gifts, and the Prayer after Communion; Prefaces (prayers introducing the central part of the Eucharist liturgy); Eucharistic Prayers; Sequences (special hymns that come before the Alleluia of the Gospel); as well as prayers for Votive Masses, Masses for the Dead, and other Masses for various needs (such as for Christians undergoing persecution and for meetings of national leaders).
