Here is an outline, with translations as necessary, of Liturgies et Cantiques Luthériens' first setting of the Divine Service. It obviously shows a strong affinity with the post-Vatican II Lutheran revisions of the Divine Service familiar to Missouri Synod folks. While not generally a fan of the direction of the post-Vatican II stuff, this setting does include some nice touches taken from the liturgical renewal movement that I think are well done - especially the taking of the traditional prayer before receiving the Lord's Body right into Order.

The Liturgy of Holy Communion: Liturgical Setting A

Confession and Absolution

The congregation may sing a Hymn of Invocation.

Stand

All may make the sing of the cross in remembrance of their Baptism.

P: In the name...

P: If we save we have no sin...[here follows the LW II/LSB I rite]

[Here is how the absolution is worded]

Almighty God in his mercy has delivered his Son into death for you [not thee - and throughout this, the plural second person is used]. In his name, he forgives you all your sins. As a called and ordained servant of Christ [which sounds better in French: a servant called and ordained of Christ], I forgive you all your sins, in the name...

[I find this use of the 2nd person plural odd - but I'm not a native French or joual speaker by a longshot...]

Accept them by the love of the one who gave himself for us, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Almighty God, who favorably accepted the sacrifice of Abel and the offering of the poor widow, likewise accept the gifts which we present to thee, so that they may serve for the advancement of your reign and the glory of your name, through Jesus Christ....

Lord God, all that is in heaven and on the earth belong to thee, and it is from thine hand that we have received everything. Bless this offering which we present unto thee for the service of your Church and of our brothers; through Jesus Christ. . .
