Divine Worship
The mission is the Mass; the Mass is the mission. For Catholics, the "source and summit of the Christian life is the Holy Eucharist" (Lumen Gentium 11; Catechism of the Catholic Church 1324 - 1327). Divine Worship, the liturgical form approved by the Holy See for use in the Ordinariate, gives expression to and preserves for Catholic worship the worthy Anglican liturgical patrimony, understood as that which has nourished the Catholic faith throughout the history of the Anglican tradition and prompted aspirations towards ecclesial unity. Complementary Norms for the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum Coetibus: the Celebration of Divine Worship Article 15 §1.

ALMIGHTY AND EVERLASTING GOD, who dost govern all things in heaven and earth: mercifully hear our prayers, and grant to this Ordinariate all things needful for its spiritual welfare (priests and deacons to labour in this portion of thy vineyard; holy, learned, and zealous religious; churches complete in the beauty of holiness). Strengthen and confirm the faithful; protect and guide the children; visit and relieve the sick; turn and soften the wicked; arouse the careless; recover the fallen; restore the penitent. Remove all hindrances to the advancement of thy truth; and bring us all to be of one heart and mind within the fold of thy holy Church, to the honour and glory of thy blessed Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. A Prayer for the Ordinariate, St Gregory’s Prayer Book
