The Solemn blessing occurs after the Prayer after Communion, and immediately prior to the priest blessing the people with the sign of the cross and sending them out... eg

here is the ending for MAss for Week one of Advent...

Prayer After Communion

Let us pray.

Father,

may our communion

teach us to love heaven.

May its promise and hope

guide our way on earth.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.


Bow your heads and pray for God's blessing....

Solemn Blessing

(Advent I)

You believe that the Son of God once came to us;

you look for him to come again.

May his coming bring you the light of his holiness

and his blessing bring you freedom.

All: Amen.

May God make you steadfast in faith,

joyful in hope, and untiring in love

all the days of your life.

All: Amen.

You rejoice that our Redeemer came to live with us as man.

When he comes again in glory,

may he reward you with endless life.

All: Amen.

May almighty God bless you,

the Father, and the Son, + and the Holy Spirit.

All: Amen.

Go in peace to love and serve the Lord.
