Penitential Rite

127. There are three forms of the penitential rite (at least in the 1975 Roman Missal). Only the third form (which resembles the Kyrie) may be led by a deacon or minister, with the celebrant then saying the final words. (CB 132).

128. If the "I Confess" is used, all strike their chest at the words "through my own fault".
