Lord, forgive all violations of the church, including the relegation of the tabernacle to an inferior place…
Lord, forgive all disrespect for consecrated objects…
Lord, forgive all apostasies…
Lord, forgive all sins of immorality…
Lord, forgive all sins of godlessness…
Lord, forgive all blaspheming of Thy Holy Name…
Lord, forgive all coldness and indifference towards Thy divine redeeming love…
Lord, forgive all lack of reverence, especially abuse of the Holy Father…
Lord, forgive all disrespect for bishops and priests…

Think of Christ abused in the Eucharist
Cardinal Ratzinger wrote the following meditation for the
Ninth station of the Way of the Cross in 2005:
"
What can the third fall of Jesus under the Cross say to us? […] Should we not also think of how much Christ suffers in his own Church? How often is the holy sacrament of his Presence abused, how often must he enter empty and evil hearts! How often do we celebrate only ourselves, without even realizing that he is there! How often is his Word twisted and misused! What little faith is present behind so many theories, so many empty words! How much filth there is in the Church, and even among those who, in the priesthood, ought to belong entirely to him! How much pride, how much self-complacency! What little respect we pay to the Sacrament of Reconciliation, where he waits for us, ready to raise us up whenever we fall! All this is present in his Passion. His betrayal by his disciples, their unworthy reception of his Body and Blood, is certainly the greatest suffering endured by the Redeemer; it pierces his heart. We can only call to him from the depths of our hearts": Kyrie eleison.
