A special dialogue between the priest and the people.

People: and with your spirit
Priest: lift up your heart
People : we lift them up to the Lord
Priest: let us give thanks to the Lord, our God
People: it is right and just

The Preface is a summary of all the good things God has done for us. It is called the preface because it leads us to the real reason we are so thankful: Jesus Christ

The Preface Acclamation (or Holy, Holy, Holy), is at the end of the Preface. The Church prays:
"Holy, Holy, Holy Lord..." This is also called the sanctus. It can be spoken or sung.

The Mystery of Faith (or Memorial Acclamation), is spoken or sung. During this the Church remembers Christ's love for us on the cross, that God raised him from the dead, and that Christ will come again to unite with us forever.

This is the last part of the doxology. It is the people's "Amen". When we say "Amen" we mean, "Yes, make it happen." We say this when we really want what we are praying for- to be one with Christ and one another. When we are one with Christ and one another, we will love everyone as Christ loves us.

A doxology is a statement of praise to the Trinity. The Church gathers all they have said, sung, and hoped for in the Eucharistic Prayer and give all glory and honor to the Father.
