70. Regina Caeli

Just in case you forgot...

It's EASTER TIME!

We now say the Regina Caeli instead of the Angelus!

ENGLISH:
V. Queen of Heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
R. For He whom you did merit to bear, alleluia.
V. Has risen, as he said, alleluia.
R. Pray for us to God, alleluia.
V. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
R. For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia.
Let us pray. O God, who gave joy to the world through the resurrection of
Thy Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, grant we beseech Thee, that through the
intercession of the Virgin Mary, His Mother, we may obtain the joys of
everlasting life. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

LATIN:
V. Regina caeli, laetare, alleluia.
R. Quia quem meruisti portare, alleluia.
V. Resurrexit, sicut dixit, alleluia.
R. Ora pro nobis Deum, alleluia.
V. Gaude et laetare, Virgo Maria, alleluia.
R. Quia surrexit Dominus vere, alleluia.
Oremus. Deus, qui per resurrectionem Filii tui, Domini nostri Iesu Christi,
mundum laetificare dignatus es: praesta, quaesumus; ut per eius Genetricem
Virginem Mariam, perpetuae capiamus gaudia vitae. Per eundem Christum
Dominum nostrum. Amen.

(Normally for recitation at 6a,12n,and 6p, but can be said any time. I encourage you to learn it in both languages!)
