FOR THE CHURCH AT WITTENBERG [FORMULA MISSAE ET COMMUNIONIS PRO ECCLESIA WITTEMBERGENSIS] 1523 FORMULA MISSAE ET COMMUNIONIS 1523 INTRODUCTION Nicolaus Hausmann, pastor primarius of the Marien­ kirche at Zwickau and a most devoted friend of Luther, had written repeatedly to him requesting advice and direction in matters connected with church worship. One of these requests had been for an order for saying mass which would conform with the principles of the movement in which they both were so <leeply concerned. Luthre had replied more or less promptly to all of Haus­ mann's requests except the last, and only after repeated urg­ ing by letter, through Stephen Roth, who was studying theology at Wittenberg, and through other friends did Luther meet Hausmann's hope and plea. Luther sent Hausmann a copy of a pamphlet 011 another subject on November 13. 1523, and in the accompanying letter told him that he would send to him a copy of the form of mass which he proposed for the ttse of the Wittenberg church. This may have been ready for printing at the time of writing this letter, for a few weeks later, on December 4, Luther sent Hausmann a printed copy of the Formula mis­ sae et communionis pro ecclesia Wittembergensi. It reached him 011 December 11, and its arrival moved Hausmann to expressions of gratitude, joy, and satisfaction.

For the mass is retained among us and celebrated with the highest reverence. Practically all the ceremonies that have as a rule been used (usitatae) are preserved, with the exception that here and there German canticles are mixed in with the Latin ones. For, chiefly for this reason is there need of the ceremonies, that they might teach the unlearned. And Paul commands that a language understood by the people be used in the Church. (AC 24.1-4, Lat.)1 It is laid upon our people with injustice that they are supposed to have done away with the mass. For it is well-known that the mass, not to speak boastfully, is held with greater devotion and seriousness among us than among our adversaries….Likewise in the public ceremonies of the mass no notable change has occurred except that in some places 1 “Falso accusantur ecclesiae nostrae, quod missam aboleant.
