John 20:29 Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen and have believed.
Quia vidisti me, Thoma
KWEE-ah vee-DEE-stee may, TOH-mah
because you-have-seen me, Thomas
Credidisti.
kray-dee-DEES-tee.
you-have-believed.
Beati qui non viderunt
bay-AH-tee kwee nohn vee-DAY-roont
blessed-ones who not they-have-seen
et crediderunt.
ayt cray-dee-DAY-roont.
and they-have-believed.
Did you know that, if you're a Christian, that you are a priest?
Before God had even given them the Ten Commandments, He had told the Israelites that he would make of them a nation of Priests and Kings.
Later, in his first Epistle, St. Peter wrote to us that we are "A chosen generation, a Royal Priesthood".
Part of what that means is making intercession for the world. And we have our own sacrificial liturgy, the Liturgy of the Hours, where we offer the sacrifice of praise.
We can pray it in Latin or in English.
If you don't have it, you can get it at http://store.PrayInLatin.com
Your purchase helps me continue my work teaching the Church's language.
