The Mass begins with an opening procession, in which the priest and ministers walk slowly to the altar, led by an altar server who holds a crucifix. Typically the lectionary (a book containing biblical scriptures) is also carried in during this procession. The assembly sings a processional song or hymn.

After a brief opening prayer, there is the Penitential Rite, known for centuries by the latin "Kyrie Eleison", meaning "Lord Have Mercy". The prayer is said by the priest and each line is repeated by the assembly:

Lord Have Mercy

Christ Have Mercy

Lord Have Mercy

Directly following this prayer, the Gloria is sung.
