And With Your Spirit

26 August 2012

Okay. They made some changes in the liturgy of the mass.

Foremost among these is the change in the response to the priest's exclamation, "The Lord be with you." Whereas before, the response is "And also with you", now the response is "And with your spirit."

According to this article from catholiceducation.org, the said change more accurately reflects "the Latin text of the mass and the biblical language of St. Paul". It also elevates the response from a mere reciprocal greeting to an acknowledgment of the Holy Spirit in the other person.

As for me, my response is: "Okay. Whatever".
