  • In liturgical use the term Preface is applied to that portion of the Eucharistic Prayer that immediately precedes the Canon or central portion of the Eucharist (Mass or Divine Liturgy).

In the various Eastern liturgies there is great variation. Among those who follow the Rite of Constantinople the audible portion of the preface does not change, but the silent prayer said by the priest will differ depending upon whether it is the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom or the Liturgy of St. Basil the Great. Among the Oriental Orthodox Churches the preface will take different forms, depending upon the liturgical rite and/or the particular feast day. In both the Ordinary and the Extraordinary form of the Roman Rite, the preface opens with the following: Priest: Dominus Vobiscum People: Et Cum Spiritu Tuo Priest: Sursum Corda People: Habemus ad Dominum Priest: Gratias Agamus Domino Deo Nostro People: Dignum et Iustum Est In the current, imprecise ICEL English translation for the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite, the preface opens with the following dialogue between the priest and the people: Priest: The Lord be with you. People: And also with you. Priest: Lift up your hearts. People: We lift them up to the Lord. Priest: Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God. People: It is right to give him thanks and praise. A more accurate translation follows: Priest: The Lord be with you. People: And with your spirit. Priest: Lift up your hearts. People: We have them with the Lord. Priest: Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God People: It is worthy and just.
