You shall cross the barren desert
but you shall not die of thirst
You shall wander far in safety
Though you do not know the way
You shall speak your words in foreign lands
And they will understand
You shall see the face of God and live

Be not afraid I go before you always Come follow me and I will give you rest

If you pass through raging waters
In the sea you shall not drown
If you walk amid the burning flames
you shall not be harmed
If you stand before the pow’r of hell and death is at your side
Know that I am with you through it all

Bless-ed are the poor, for the kingdom shall be theirs
Blest are you that weep and mourn
For one day you shall laugh
And if wicked men insult and hate you
All because of me ....
Bless-ed bless-ed are you

Let the Church with gladness hymns of triumph sing,

Life is nought without thee: aid us in our strife.
Make us more than conqu’rors through thy deathless love;
Bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above.

Blessed are you, who have come in your
abundant mercy!
O gates, lift high your heads;
grow higher, ancient doors.
Let him enter, the king of glory!

Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of
the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the prophet Isaiah 50:4-7
The Lord has given me a disciple 's tongue. So
that I may know how to reply to the wearied he
provides me with speech. Each morning he
wakes me to hear, to listen like a disciple. The
Lord has opened my ear. For my part, I made
no resistance, neither did I turn away. I offered
my back to those who struck me, my cheeks to
those who tore at my beard; I did not cover my
face against insult and spittle. The Lord comes
to my help, so that I am untouched by the
insults. So, too, I set my face like flint; I know I
shall not be shamed.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps. 21 :8-9. 17-20. 23-24. R.v2
R) My God, my God, why have you
forsaken me?
All who see me deride me.
They curl their lips, they toss their heads.
'He trusted in the Lord, let him save him;
let him release him if this is his friend .' (R)
Many dogs have surrounded me,
a band of the wicked beset me.
They tear holes in my hands and my feet.
I can count every one of my bones. (R)
They divide my clothing among them.
They cast lots for my robe.
O Lord, do not leave me alone,
my strength, make haste to help me! (R)
I will tell of your name to my brethren
and praise you where they are assembled.
'You who fear the Lord give him praise;
all sons of Jacob, give him glory.
Revere him, Israel's sons.' (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the letter of St Paul to the
Philippians 2:6-11
His state was divine,
yet Christ Jesus did not cling
to his equality with God
but emptied himself
to assume the condition of a slave,
and became as men are;
and being as all men are,
he was humbler yet,
even to accepting death,
death on a cross.
But God raised him high
and gave him the name
which is above all other names
so that all beings
in the heavens, on earth and in the underworld,
should bend the knee at the name of Jesus
and that every tongue should acclaim
Jesus Christ as Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation Stand
Praise to you, O Christ, king of eternal glory:
Christ was humbler yet,

The Passion
The Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ

I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with
the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the
Virgin Mary, All bow
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under
Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the
giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored
and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and
apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness
of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of
the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
Or:

The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God,
the Father almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the All bow
Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried;
he descended into hell;
on the third day he rose again from the dead;
he ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God
the Father almighty;
from there he will come to judge the
living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting. Amen.

The Prayer of the Faithful
Response example: Lord, in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.
After the concluding prayer all say: Amen. Sit

THE LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST

Offertory:
Intro: Eh bata ta bwetukala kilumbu mundza We are all sinners

Beno bayaya a bwetukala kudiku zulue
But how will it be one day?

Eh mfumu ame mfumu ame nhidi ka
How can we gain Heaven?

Eh mfumu ame mfumu ame nkidi aka a.
My God, My God, what more can we do.

1) Eh e mfumu yamba makabu. (Repeat)
O God accept these offerings

Yamba makabu yange pesa na beto. (Repeat) that we present to you.

Tala maboko ya muno yokele pamba (Repeat) Accept this bread.

Tala muni kibeni suka tiyanene. (Repeat) Accept this wine.

Kikima munukalenda pesa nange e. (Repeat)
Accept the fruits of our work
Accept this choir.

Ref: Mfumu e mfumu, mfumu e mfumu
What we present is so little

Mfumu e mfumu, mfumu e mfumu e e e.
But these offerings find value before you.

2) Eh e mfumu yamba mapa. (Repeat)
What more can we give you?

Yamba mapa yange pesa na beto. (Repeat)

If the Priest says the two prayers of offering
aloud, the response both times is:
Blessed be God for ever.
The people rise as the Priest says:
Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
The people reply:
May the Lord accept the sacrifice
at your hands
for the praise and glory of his name,
for our good
and the good of all his holy Church.
Prayer over the Offerings
Through the Passion of your Only Begotten
Son, O Lord,
may our reconciliation with you be near at hand,
so that, though we do not merit it by our own
deeds,
yet by this sacrifice made once for all,
we may feel already the effects of your mercy.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
The Eucharistic Prayer
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right and just.
Preface: The Passion of the Lord.
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God,
through Christ our Lord.
For, though innocent, he suffered willingly for
sinners
and accepted unjust condemnation to save
the guilty.
His Death has washed away our sins,
and his Resurrection has purchased our justification.
And so, with all the Angels,
we praise you, as in joyful celebration we acclaim:

Sanctus

Oseburuwa chineke nki’igwe ndi agha a a,

Eucharistic Prayer II
{The Priest may use a different Eucharistic Prayer.)
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
the fount of all holiness.
Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray,
by sending down your Spirit upon them like the
dewfall,
so that they may become for us
the Body and Blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
At the time he was betrayed
and entered willingly into his Passion,
he took bread and, giving thanks, broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when ·supper was ended,
he took the chalice
and, once more giving thanks,
he gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU , AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
Do THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
We proclaim your Death, O Lord,
and profess your Resurrection
until you come again.
Therefore, as we celebrate
the memorial of his Death and Resurrection,
we offer you, Lord,
the Bread of life and the Chalice of salvation,
giving thanks that you have held us worthy
to be in your presence and minister to you.
Humbly we pray
that, partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ,
we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit.
Remember, Lord, your Church,
spread throughout the world,
and bring her to the fullness of charity,
together with N. our Pope and N. our Bishop
and all the clergy.
Remember also our brothers and sisters
who have fallen asleep in the hope of the
resurrection,
and all who have died in your mercy:
welcome them into the light of your face.
Have mercy on us all, we pray,
that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with the blessed Apostles,
and all the Saints who have pleased you
throughout the ages,
we may merit to be coheirs to eternal life,
and may praise and glorify you
through your Son, Jesus Christ.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen.

The Communion Rite Stand

Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

The Priest continues alone and at the end all

that you should enter under my roof,
but only say the word
and my soul shall be healed.
The Priest or other minister says to each
communicant:
The Body [Blood] of Christ.
Each communicant answers: Amen.

Communion 1:
My song is love unknown
My Saviour’s love to me.
Love to the loveless shown
that they might lovely be.
Oh, who am I that for my sake, my Lord should take frail flesh and die?

He came from his blest throne
salvation to bestow; but men made strange,
and none the longed-for Christ would know. But O my friend, my friend indeed,
Who at my need, his life did spend.

Sometimes they strew his way
and his sweet praises sing,
Resounding all the day Hosannas to their King.
Then, “Crucify!” is all their breath,
And for his death they thirst and cry.

Why, what hath my Lord done
What makes this rage and spite?
He made the lame to run
he gave the blind their sight.

Sweet injuries, yet they at these,
Themselves displease and ‘gainst him rise

They rise and needs will have
my dear Lord made away;
A murderer they save
The Prince of Life they slay.
Yet cheerful he, to suff’ring goes,
that he his foes from thence might free.

Here might I stay and sing
No story so divine:
Never was love, dear King
never was grief like thine.
This is my friend in whose sweet praise,
I all my days would gladly spend.

Communion Antiphon Mt 26:42
Father, if this chalice cannot pass without
my drinking it,
your will be done.
Prayer after Communion Stand
Nourished with these sacred gifts,
we humbly beseech you, O Lord,
that, just as through the death of your Son
you have brought us to hope for what we believe,
so by his Resurrection
you may lead us to where you call.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

THE CONCLUDING RITES
Announcements may be made. Then:
Priest: The Lord be with you .
All: And with your spirit.
Prayer over the People
The Deacon, or the Priest, says:
Bow down for the Blessing.
The Priest continues:
Look, we pray, O Lord, on this your family,
for whom our Lord Jesus Christ
did not hesitate to be delivered into the hands
of the wicked
and submit to the agony of the Cross.
Who lives and reigns for ever and ever.
Amen.
May almighty God bless you,
the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Then the Deacon, or the Priest, says:
Go forth, the Mass is ended. Or:
Go and announce the Gospel of the Lord. Or:
Go in peace, glorifying the Lord by your life. Or:
Go in peace.
Thanks be to God.

Recessional:
Meekness and majesty, manhood and deity,
In perfect harmony - the Man who is God;
Lord of eternity, dwells in humanity,
Kneels in humility and washes our feet

O what a mystery - meekness and majesty….
Bow down and worship

For this is your God…
This is your God

Father's pure radiance ,perfect in innocence,
Yet learns obedience to death on a cross;
Suff’ring to give us life, conquering through sacrifice,
And as they crucify prays Father forgive

Wisdom unsearchable, God the invisible,
Love indestructible in frailty appears;
Lord of infinity, stooping so tenderly,
Lifts our humanity to the heights of His throne

the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Amen. Sit

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the prophet Jeremiah 31 : 31-34
See, the days are coming - it is the Lord who
speaks - when I will make a new covenant with
the House of Israel and the House of Judah,
but not a covenant like the one I made with
their ancestors on the day I took them by the
hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt.
They broke that covenant of mine, so I had to
show them who was master. It is the Lord who
speaks. No, this is the covenant I will make
with the House of Israel when those days arrive
- it is the Lord who speaks. Deep within them I
will plant my Law, writing it on their hearts.
Then I will be their God and they shall be my
people. There will be no further need for
neighbour to try to teach neighbour, or brother
to say to brother, 'Learn to know the Lord!' No,
they will all know me, the least no less than the
greatest - it is the Lord who speaks - since I will
forgive their iniquity and never call their sin to
mind.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm:
Purify my heart,
let me be as gold - and precious silver
Purify my heart,
let me be as gold - pure gold

Refiners fire,
my hearts one desire, is to be - Holy
Set apart for you Lord,
I choose to be - Holy
Set apart for you my Master,
ready to do your will

Purify my heart,
cleanse me from within - and make me Holy Purify my heart,
cleanse me from my sin - deep within

Second Reading
A reading from the letter to the Hebrews 5:7-9
During his life on earth, Christ offered up prayer
and entreaty, aloud and in silent tears, to the
one who had the power to save him out of
death, and he submitted so humbly that his
prayer was heard. Although he was Son, he
learnt to obey through suffering; but having
been made perfect, he became for all who obey
him the source of eternal salvation.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation Stand
Jn 12:26
Glory to you, O Christ, you are the Word
of God!
If a man serves me, says the Lord,
he must follow me;
wherever I am,
my servant will be there too.
Glory to you, O Christ, you are the Word
of God!

Gospel John 12:20-33
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to John.
Glory to you, O Lord.
Among those who went up to worship at the
festival were some Greeks. These approached
Philip, who came from Bethsaida in Galilee,
and put this request to him, 'Sir, we should like
to see Jesus.' Philip went to tell Andrew, and
Andrew and Philip together went to tell Jesus.
Jesus replied to them:
'Now the hour has come
for the Son of Man to be glorified.
I tell you, most solemnly,
unless a wheat grain falls on the ground and
dies,
it remains only a single grain;
but if it dies,
it yields a rich harvest.
Anyone who loves his life loses it;
anyone who hates his life in this world
will keep it for the eternal life.
If a man serves me, he must follow me,
wherever I am, my servant will be there too.
If anyone serves me,
my Father will honour him.
Now my soul is troubled.
What shall I say:
Father, save me from this hour?
But it was for this very reason
that I have come to this hour.
Father, glorify your name!'
A voice came from heaven, 'I have glorified it,
and I will glorify it again.'
People standing by, who heard this, said it
was a clap of thunder; others said, 'It was an
angel speaking to him.' Jesus answered, 'It
was not for my sake that this voice came, but
for yours.
'Now sentence is being passed on this world;
now the prince of this world is to be overthrown.
And when I am lifted up from the earth,
I shall draw all men to myself.'
· By these words he indicated the kind of
death he would die.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

THE LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST
The offerings are brought to the altar.
A hymn may be sung.

Offertory:
Take our bread, we ask you,
Take our hearts, we love you,
Take our lives, oh Father,
We are yours, we are yours.

Yours as we stand at the table you set,
Yours as we eat the bread our hearts can't forget.
We are the signs of your life with us yet;
We are yours, we are yours.

Your holy people stand washed in your blood,
Spirit-filled, yet hungry, we await your food.
Poor though are we have brought ourselves to You
We are yours, we are yours.

If the Priest says the two prayers of offering
aloud the response both times is:
Blessed be God for ever.
The Priest completes additional personal
preparatory rites, and the people rise as he
says:
Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
The people reply:
May the Lord accept the sacrifice
at your hands
for the praise and glory of his name,
for our good
and the good of all his holy Church.

Prayer over the Offerings
Hear us, almighty God,
and, having instilled in your servants
the teachings of the Christian faith,
graciously purify them
by the working of this sacrifice.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

The Eucharistic Prayer
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right and just.

Preface I of Lent
The spiritual meaning of Lent
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God,
through Christ our Lord.
For by your gracious gift each year
your faithful await the sacred paschal feasts
with the joy of minds made pure,
so that, more eagerly intent on prayer
and on the works of charity,
and participating in the mysteries
by which they have been reborn,
they may be led to the fullness of grace
that you bestow on your sons and daughters.
And so, with Angels and Archangels,
with Thrones and Dominions,
and with all the hosts and Powers of heaven,
we sing the hymn of your glory,
as without end we acclaim:

Sanctus
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord
God of power and might
Heaven and Earth are full of Your glory
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest
Bless-ed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest

Eucharistic Prayer Ill
(The Priest may use a different Eucharistic Prayer.)
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
and all you have created
rightly gives you praise,
for through your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
by the power and working of the Holy Spirit,
you give life to all things and make them holy,
and you never cease to gather a people
to yourself,
so that from the rising of the sun to its setting
a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name.
Therefore, O Lord, we humbly implore you:
by the same Spirit graciously make holy
these gifts we have brought to you for
consecration,
that they may become the Body and Blood
of your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
at whose command we celebrate these mysteries.
For on the night he was betrayed
he himself took bread,
and giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
broke the bread and gave it to his disciples,
saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice,
and, giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
Do THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
When we eat this Bread and drink this Cup,
we proclaim your Death, O Lord,
until you come again.
Therefore, O Lord, as we celebrate the memorial
of the saving Passion of your Son,
his wondrous Resurrection
and Ascension into heaven,
and as we look forward to his second coming,
we offer you in thanksgiving
this holy and living sacrifice.
Look, we pray, upon the oblation of your Church
and, recognizing the sacrificial Victim
by whose death
you willed to reconcile us to yourself,
grant that we, who are nourished
by the Body and Blood of your Son
and filled with his Holy Spirit,
may become one body, one spirit in Christ.
May he make of us
an eternal offering to you,
so that we may obtain an inheritance with your elect,
especially with the most Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with your blessed Apostles and glorious Martyrs
and with all the Saints,
on whose constant intercession in your presence
we rely for unfailing help.
May this Sacrifice of our reconciliation,
we pray, O Lord,
advance the peace and salvation of all the world.
Be pleased to confirm in faith and charity
your pilgrim Church on earth,
with your servant N. our Pope and N. our Bishop,
the Order of Bishops, all the clergy,
and the entire people you have gained for
your own.
Listen graciously to the prayers of this family,
whom you have summoned before you:
in your compassion, O merciful Father,
gather to yourself all your children
scattered throughout the world .
To our departed brothers and sisters
and to all who were pleasing to you
at their passing from this life,
give kind admittance to your kingdom.
There we hope to enjoy for ever the fullness
of your glory ·
through Christ our Lord,
through whom you bestow on the world all
that is good.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen.

The Communion Rite Stand
The Priest invites all to join in the Lord's Prayer:
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

The Priest continues alone:
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil,
graciously grant peace in our days,
that, by the help of your mercy,
we may be always free from sin
and safe from all distress,
as we await the blessed hope
and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

The Priest says:
Lord Jesus Christ,
who said to your Apostles:
Peace I leave you, my peace I give you,
look not on our sins,
but on the faith of your Church,
and graciously grant her peace and unity
in accordance with your will.
Who live and reign for ever and ever.
Amen.
The peace of the Lord be with you always.
And with your spirit.
The Deacon, or the Priest adds:
Let us offer each other the sign of peace.
The Priest takes the host and breaks it.
Meanwhile the people say or sing:

Lamb of God: (repeat each line)
Lamb of God
You take our sins
Lamb of God have mercy on us
Grant us all your peace

Kneel
The Priest shows the host to the people and says:
Behold the Lamb of God,
behold him who takes away the sins of the world.
Blessed are those called to the supper
of the Lamb.
Lord, I am not worthy
that you should enter under my roof,
but only say the word
and my soul shall be healed.
The Priest or other minister says to each
communicant:
The Body [Blood] of Christ.
Each communicant answers: Amen.

Communion 1:
Let us break bread together on our knees
Let us break bread together on our knees
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun
O Lord have mercy on me

Let us drink wine together on our knees

When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun
O Lord have mercy on me

Communion 2:
Lord make me a means of Your Peace
Where there’s hatred grown
Let me sow Your love
Where there’s injury Lord
Let forgiveness be my sword
Lord make me a means of Your Peace

Lord make me a means of Your Peace
Where there’s sadness here
Let me sow Your joy
When the darkness nears
May Your light dispel our fears
Lord make me a means of Your Peace

Lord grant me to seek and to share
To forgive in Thee
You’ve forgiven me
For to die in Thee
Is eternal life to me
Lord make me a means of Your Peace

Communion 3:
O the Love of my Lord is the essence
Of all that I love here on Earth
All the beauty I see He has given to me
And his giving is gentle as silence

Every day every hour every moment
Has been blessed by the strength of His love
At the turn of each tide he is there at my side
And his touch is as gentle as silence

There’ve been times when I’ve turned from his presence
And I’ve walked other paths other ways
But I’ve called on his name in the dark of my shame
And his mercy was gentle as silence

Prayer after Communion Stand
We pray, almighty God,
that we may always be counted
among the members of Christ,
in whose Body and Blood we have
communion.
Who lives and reigns for ever and ever.
Amen.

Recessional:

Unless a grain of wheat shall fall
upon the ground and die,
It shall remain but a single grain
and not give life

Grace to pardon, grace to keep.

Communion (1)
Now thank we all our God,
With heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things hath done,
In whom his world rejoices;
Who from our mother's arms
Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours to-day. 

O may this bounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in his grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next. 

All praise and thanks to God
The Father now be given,
The Son and him who reigns,
With them in highest heaven,
The one eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

Who humbled Himself 
To set people free
The keys of the Kingdom
To Peter He Gave 
With pow’r and dominion
To heal and to save 
O wonder untold!
O mystery great

No art can design 
Nor mind penetrate!
His infinite wisdom
No author may pen
To Him be all glory
Forever Amen!

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading Shorter form
A reading from the book of Exodus
20:1-3. 7-8. 12-17
God spoke all these words. He said, 'I am the
Lord your God who brought you out of the land of
Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
'You shall have no gods except me.
'You shall not utter the name of the Lord your
God to misuse it, for the Lord will not leave
unpunished the man who utters his name to
misuse it.
'Remember the sabbath day and keep it holy.
'Honour your father and your mother so that you
may have a long life in the land that the Lord your
God has given to you.
'You shall not kill.
'You shall not commit adultery.
'You shall not steal.
'You shall not bear false witness against your
neighbour.
'You shall not covet your neighbour's house.
'You shall not covet your neighbour's wife, or his
servant, man or woman, or his ox, or his donkey,
or anything that is his.'
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps 18:8-11. R. Jn 6:68
R) You, Lord, have the message of eternal life.
The law of the Lord is perfect,
it revives the soul.
The rule of the Lord is to be trusted,
it gives wisdom to the simple. (R)
The precepts of the Lord are right,
they gladden the heart.
The command of the Lord is clear,
it gives light to the eyes. (R)
The fear of the Lord is holy,
abiding for ever.
The decrees of the Lord are truth
and all of them just. (R)
They are more to be desired than gold,
than the purest of gold
and sweeter are they than honey,
than honey from the comb. (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St Paul
to the Corinthians. 1 :22-25
While the Jews demand miracles and the
Greeks look for wisdom, here are we preaching
a crucified Christ; to the Jews an obstacle that
they cannot get over, to the pagans madness,
but to those who have been called, whether they
are Jews or Greeks, a Christ who is the power
and the wisdom of God. For God's foolishness
is wiser than human wisdom, and God's
weakness is stronger than human strength.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation Stand
Praise to you, O Christ, king of eternal glory! Jn 3:16
God loved the world so much that he his only Son;
everyone who believes in him has eternal life
Praise to you, O Christ, king of eternal glory!
11Gospel John 2:13-25
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to John.
Glory to you, O Lord.
Just before the Jewish Passover Jesus went up
to Jerusalem, and in the Temple he found
people selling cattle and sheep and pigeons,
and the money changers sitting at their
counters there. Making a whip out of some
cord, he drove them all out of the Temple, cattle
and sheep as well, scattered the money
changers' coins, knocked their tables over and
said to the pigeon-sellers, 'Take all this out of
here and stop turning my Father's house into a
market.' Then his disciples remembered the
words of scripture: Zeal for your house will
devour me. The Jews intervened and said,
'What sign can you show us to justify what you
have done?' Jesus answered, 'Destroy this
sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.'
The Jews replied, 'It has taken forty-six years to
build this sanctuary: are you going to raise it up
in three days?' But he was speaking of the
sanctuary that was his body, and when Jesus
rose from the dead, his disciples remembered
that he had said this, and they believed the
scripture and the words he had said.
During his stay in Jerusalem for the
Passover many believed in his name when
they saw the signs that he gave, but Jesus
knew them all and did not trust himself to them;
he never needed evidence about any man; he
could tell what a man had in him.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Eucharistic Prayer II
(The Priest may use a different Eucharistic Prayer.)
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
the fount of all holiness.
Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray,
by sending down your Spirit upon them
like the dewfall,
so that they may become for us
the Body and Blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
At the time he was betrayed
and entered willingly into his Passion,
he took bread and, giving thanks, broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice
and, once more giving thanks,
he gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,

WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
Save us, Saviour of the world,
for by your Cross and Resurrection,
you have set us free.
Therefore, as we celebrate
the memorial of his Death and Resurrection,
we offer you, Lord,
the Bread of life and the Chalice of salvation,
giving thanks that you have held us worthy
to be in your presence and minister to you.
Humbly we pray
that, partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ,
we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit.
Remember, Lord, your Church,
spread throughout the world,
and bring her to the fullness of charity,
together with N. our Pope and N. our Bishop
and all the clergy.
Remember also our brothers and sisters
who have fallen asleep
in the hope of the resurrection,
and all who have died in your mercy:
welcome them into the light of your face.
Have mercy on us all, we pray,
that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with the blessed Apostles,
and all the Saints who have pleased you
throughout the ages,
we may merit to be coheirs to eternal life,
and may praise and glorify you
through your Son, Jesus Christ.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,

all glory and honour is yours,

Behold the Lamb of God,
behold him who takes away the sins of the world.
Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb.
Lord, I am not worthy

and my soul shall be healed.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the book of Genesis
22:1-2. 9-13. 15-18
God put Abraham to the test. 'Abraham,
Abraham ' he called. 'Here I am' he replied.
'Take your son,' God said 'your only child Isaac,
whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah.
·There you shall offer him as a burnt offering, on
a mountain I will point out to you.'
When they arrived at the place God had
pointed out to him, Abraham built an altar there
and arranged the wood. Then he stretched out
his hand and seized the knife to kill his son.
But the angel of the Lord called to him from
heaven. 'Abraham, Abraham' he said. 'I am
here' he replied. 'Do not raise your hand
against the boy' the angel said. 'Do not harm
him, for now I know you fear God. You have
not refused me your son, your only son.' Then
looking up, Abraham saw a ram caught by its
horns in a bush. Abraham took the ram and
offered it as a burnt-offering in place of his son.
The angel of the Lord ·called Abraham a
second time from heaven. 'I swear by my own
self - it is the Lord who speaks - because you
have done this, because you have not refused
me your son, your only son, I will shower
blessings on you, I will make your descendants
as many as the stars of heaven and the grains
of sand on the seashore. Your descendants
shall gain possession of the gates of their
enemies. All the nations of the earth shall bless
themselves by your descendants, as a reward
for your obedience.'
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps 115:10. 15-19 R. Ps 114:9
R) I will walk in the presence of the Lord
in the land of the living.
I trusted, even when I said:
'I am sorely afflicted. '
O precious in the eyes of the Lord
is the death of his faithful. (R)
Your servant, Lord, your servant am I;
you have loosened my bonds.
A thanksgiving sacrifice I make:
I will call on the Lord's name. (R)
My vows to the Lord I will fufil
before all his people,
in the courts of the house of the Lord,
in your midst, O Jerusalem. (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the letter of St Paul to the
Romans 8:31-34
With God on our side who can be against us?
Since God did not spare his own Son, but gave
him up to benefit us all, we may be certain,
after such a gift, that he will not refuse anything
he can give. Could anyone accuse those that
God has chosen? When God acquits, could
anyone condemn? Could Christ Jesus? No!
He not only died for us - he rose from the dead,
and there at God's right hand he stands and
pleads for us.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation
Glory and praise to you, O Christ!
From the bright cloud the
Father's voice was heard:
Stand
Mt 17:5
'This is my Son, the Beloved. Listen to him!'
Glory and praise to you, O Christ!

Gospel Mark 9:2-10
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to
Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
Jesus took with him Peter and James and John
and led them up a high mountain where they
could be alone by themselves. There in their
presence he was transfigured: his clothes
became dazzlingly white, whiter than any
earthly bleacher could make them . Elijah
appeared to them with Moses; and they were
talking with Jesus. Then Peter spoke to Jesus.
'Rabbi', he said 'it is wonderful for us to be
here; so let us make three tents, one for you,
one for Moses and one for Elijah.' He did not
know what to say; they were so frightened. And
a cloud came, covering them in shadow; and
there came a voice from the cloud, 'This is
my Son, the Beloved. Listen to him.' Then
suddenly, when they looked round, they saw no
one with them any more but only Jesus.
As they came down the mountain he warned
them to tell no one what they had seen, until
after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
They observed the warning faithfully, though
among themselves they discussed what 'rising
from the dead' could mean.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God,
through Christ our Lord.
For after he had told the disciples of his
coming Death,
on the holy mountain he manifested to them
his glory,
to show, even by the testimony of the law and
the prophets,
that the Passion leads to the glory of the
Resurrection.
And so, with the Powers of heaven,
we worship you constantly on earth,
and before your majesty
without end we acclaim :

Eucharistic Prayer Ill
(The Priest may use a different Eucharistic Prayer.)
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
and all you have created
rightly gives you praise,
for through your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
by the power and working of the Holy Spirit,
you give life to all things and make them holy,
and you never cease to gather a people
to yourself,
so that from the rising of the sun to its setting
a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name.
Therefore, O Lord, we humbly implore you:
by the same Spirit graciously make holy
these gifts we have brought to you for
consecration,
that they may become the Body and .,. Blood
of your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
at whose command we celebrate these mysteries.
For on the night he was betrayed
he himself took bread,
and giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
broke the bread and gave it to his disciples,
saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice,
and, giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
Do THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
We proclaim you Death, O Lord,
and profess your Resurrection
until you come again.
Therefore, O Lord, as we celebrate the memorial
of the saving Passion of your Son,
his wondrous Resurrection
and Ascension into heaven,
and as we look forward to his second coming,
we offer you in thanksgiving
this holy and living sacrifice.
Look, we pray, upon the oblation of your Church
and, recognizing the sacrificial Victim
by whose death
you willed to reconcile us to yourself,
grant that we, who are nourished
by the Body and Blood of your Son
and filled with his Holy Spirit,
may become one body, one spirit in Christ.
May he make of us
an eternal offering to you,
so that we may obtain an inheritance with your elect,
especially with the most Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with your blessed Apostles and glorious Martyrs
and with all the Saints,
on whose constant intercession in your presence
we rely for unfailing help.
May this Sacrifice of our reconciliation,
we pray, O Lord,
advance the peace and salvation of all the world.
Be pleased to confirm in faith and charity
your pilgrim Church on earth,
with your servant N. our Pope and N. our Bishop,
the Order of Bishops, all the clergy,
and the entire people you have gained for
your own.
Listen graciously to the prayers of this family,
whom you have summoned before you :
in your compassion, O merciful Father,
gather to yourself all your children
scattered throughout the world.
To our departed brothers and sisters
and to all who were pleasing to you
at their passing from this life,
give kind admittance to your kingdom.
There we hope to enjoy for ever the fullness
of your glory
through Christ our Lord,
through whom you bestow on the world all
that is good.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen.

Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

The Priest continues alone:
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil,
graciously grant peace in our days,
that, by the help of your mercy,
we may be always free from sin
and safe from all distress,
as we await the blessed hope
and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

The Priest says:
Lord Jesus Christ,
who said to your Apostles:
Peace I leave you, my peace I give you,
look not on our sins,
but on the faith of your Church,
and graciously grant her peace and unity
in accordance with your will.
Who live and reign for ever and ever.

God is love, all is there!
Jesus came to show him,
That we all might know Him!

Sing aloud, loud, loud!
Sing aloud, loud, loud!
God is good! God is truth!
God is beauty! Praise Him!

None can see God above;
We can share life and love;
Thus may we Godward move,
Seek him in creation,
Holding every nation.

Jesus lived on the earth,
Hope and life brought to birth
And affirmed human worth,
For He came to save us
By the truth He gave us.

To our Lord praise we sing,
Light and life, friend and King,
Coming down, love to bring,
Pattern for our duty,
Showing God in beauty.

Communion Antiphon Mt 17: 5

Thy justice like mountains high soaring above
Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.

To all life Thou givest, to both great and small;
In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
And wither and perish, but nought changeth Thee.

Entrance:
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
Who abide in His shadow for life
Say to the Lord, "My refuge, my rock in whom I trust!"

And He will raise you up on eagles' wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
And hold you in the palm of His hand

The snare of the fowler will never capture you
And famine will bring you no fear
Under His wings your refuge,
His faithfulness your shield

For to His angels He's given a command
To guard you in all of your ways
Upon their hands they will bear you up
Lest you dash your foot against a stone

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the book of Genesis 9:8-15
God spoke to Noah and his sons, 'See, I
establish my Covenant with you, and with your
descendants after you; also with every living
creature to be found with you, birds, cattle and
every wild beast with you : everything that came
out of the ark, everything that lives on the earth.
I establish my Covenant with you: no thing of
flesh shall be swept away again by the waters
of the flood . There shall be no flood to destroy
the earth again.'
God said, 'Here is the sign of the Covenant I
make between myself and you and every living
creature with you for all generations: I set my
bow in the clouds and it shall be a sign of the
Covenant between me and the earth. When I
gather the clouds over the earth and the bow
appears in the clouds, I will recall the Covenant
between myself and you and every living
creature of every kind. And so the waters shall
never again become a flood to destroy all
things of flesh.'
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps 24:4-9. R. cf.v10
R) Your ways, Lord, are faithfulness and love
for those who keep your covenant.
Lord, make me know your ways.
Lord, teach me your paths.
Make me walk in your truth, and teach me:
for you are God my saviour. (R)
Remember your mercy, Lord,
and the love you have shown from of old.
In your love remember me,
because of your goodness, O Lord. (R)
The Lord is good and upright.
He shows the path to those who stray,
he guides the humble in the right path;
he teaches his way to the poor. (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St Peter
3:18-22
Christ himself, innocent though he was, died
once for sins, died for the guilty, to lead us to
God. In the body he was put to death, in the
spirit he was raised to life, and, in the spirit, he
went to preach to the spirits in prison. Now it
was long ago, when Noah was still building that
ark which saved only a small group of eight
people 'by water', and when God was still waiting
patiently, that these spirits refused to
believe. That water is a type of the baptism
which saves you now, and which is not the
washing off of physical dirt but a pledge made
to God from a good conscience, through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has entered
heaven and is at God's right hand, now that he
has made the angels of the Dominations and
Powers his subjects.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation Stand
Mt 4:4
Praise to you, O Christ, king of eternal glory!

The Lord be with you.

A reading from the holy Gospel according to
Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
The Spirit drove Jesus out into the wilderness
and he remained there for forty days, and was
tempted by Satan. He was with the wild
beasts, and the angels looked after him.
After John had been arrested, Jesus went
into Galilee. There he proclaimed the Good
News from God. 'The time has come' he said
'and the kingdom of God is close at hand.
Repent, and believe the Good News.'

Fruit of the earth, work of our hands
It will become the Cup of Life!

If the Priest says the two prayers of offering
aloud the response both times is:
Blessed be God for ever.
The Priest completes additional personal
preparatory rites, and the people rise as he says:
Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
The people reply:
May the Lord accept the sacrifice
at your hands
for the praise and glory of his name,
for our good
and the good of all his holy Church.

Prayer over the Offerings
Give us the right dispositions, O Lord, we
pray,
to make these offerings,
for with them we celebrate the beginning
of this venerable and sacred time.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

The Eucharistic Prayer
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right and just.

Preface: The Temptation of the Lord
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God,
through Christ our Lord.
By abstaining forty long days from earthly food,
he consecrated through his fast
the pattern of our Lenten observance
and, by overturning all the snares of the
ancient serpent,
taught us to cast out the leaven of malice,
so that, celebrating worthily the Paschal
Mystery,
we might pass over at last to the eternal
paschal feast.
And so, with the company of Angels and Saints,
we sing the hymn of your praise,
as without end we acclaim :

Sanctus
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord
God of power and might
Heaven and Earth are full of Your glory
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest
Bless-ed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest

Eucharistic Prayer II
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
the fount of all holiness.
Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray,
by sending down your Spirit upon them
like the dewfall,
so that they may become for us
the Body and Blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
At the time he was betrayed
and entered willingly into his Passion,
he took bread and, giving thanks, broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice
and, once more giving thanks,
he gave it to his disciples, saying:
T AKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
Save us, Saviour of the world,
for by your Cross and Resurrection,
you have set us free.
Therefore, as we celebrate
the memorial of his Death and Resurrection,
we offer you, Lord,
the Bread of life and the Chalice of salvation,
giving thanks that you have held us worthy
to be in your presence and minister to you.
Humbly we pray
that, partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ,
we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit.
Remember, Lord, your Church ,
spread throughout the world,
and bring her to the fullness of charity,
together with N. our Pope and N. our Bishop
and all the clergy.

Remember also our brothers and sisters
who have fallen asleep
in the hope of the resurrection ,
and all who have died in your mercy:
welcome them into the light of your face.
Have mercy on us all , we pray,
that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with the blessed Apostles,
and all the Saints who have pleased you
throughout the ages,
we may merit to be coheirs to eternal life,
and may praise and glorify you
through your Son, Jesus Christ.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen
and fellowship with your holy Apostles and Martyrs:
with John the Baptist, Stephen,
Matthias, Barnabas, [ ... ]
and all your Saints;
admit us, we beseech you,
into their company,
not weighing our merits,
but granting us your pardon,
through Christ our Lord.
Through whom
you continue to make all these good things,
O Lord;
you sanctify them, fill them with life,
bless them, and bestow them upon us.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.

The people acclaim: Amen.
The Communion Rite Stand
The Priest invites all to join in the Lord's Prayer:
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

The Priest continues alone:
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, .. .
For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

The Priest says:
Lord Jesus Christ. .. Amen.
The peace of the Lord be with you always.
And with your spirit.

The Deacon, or the Priest, adds:
Let us offer each other the sign of peace.
The Priest takes the host and breaks it.
Meanwhile the people say or sing:

Lamb of God: (repeat each line)
Lamb of God
You take our sins
Lamb of God have mercy on us
Grant us all your peace

Kneel

The Priest shows the host to the people and says:
Behold the Lamb of God,
behold him who takes away the sins of the world.
Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb.
Lord, I am not worthy
that you should enter under my roof,
but only say the word
and my soul shall be healed.

The Priest or other minister says to each
communicant:
The Body [Blood] of Christ.
Each communicant answers: Amen.

Communion 1:
Come and be filled as you sit at my table
Quenching your thirst as you drink of my wine
Bringing the memory of my dying and rising
Into your bloodstream mingled with mine

This is the bread ...that has come down from heaven... This is my blood ...for the life of the world...

He leads us out ....of the power of darkness... Setting us free.... through the spirit He sends...

Thus shall the world ....know you are my disciples...
If you can love... and if you can forgive...

Communion 2:
Bread of life, truth eternal,
Broken now to set us free.
The risen Christ, his saving power,
Is here in Bread and Wine for me.

Lord, I know I am not worthy to receive you.
You speak the words and I am healed.
Here at your table, Love’s mystery:
One bread, one cup, one family.

Lord by your cross, you reconciled us to the Father.
We have only to believe.
Your sacrifice, our victory,
Now by your blood we are redeemed.

Lord, you gave your people manna in the desert,
Still you fulfil our every need.
Lord when we hunger, Lord, when we thirst,
We come to you and we receive

Prayer after Communion Stand
Renewed now with heavenly bread,
by which faith is nourished, hope increased,
and charity strengthened,
we pray, O Lord,
that we may learn to hunger for Christ,
the true and living Bread,
and strive to live by every word
which proceeds from your mouth.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

THE CONCLUDING RITES
Announcements may be made.
Priest: The Lord be with you .

Prayer over the People
The Deacon, or the Priest, says:

Then the Priest continues:

come down upon your people,
that hope may grow in tribulation,
virtue be strengthened in temptation,
and eternal redemption be assured.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
And may the blessing of almighty God,
Then:
the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit,

Go in peace, glorifying the Lord by your life. Or:
Go in peace.
Thanks be to God.

Recessional:
God of mercy and compassion
Look with pity upon me
Father let me call Thee Father
‘tis thy child returns to Thee

Jesus Lord, I ask for mercy,
knowing it is not in vain
All my sins I now detest them,
Help me not to sin again.

Only by thy grace and mercy
May I hope for Heaven above
Where the Saints rejoice for ever
In a sea of boundless love

See our Saviour bleeding, dying
On the cross of Calvary
To that cross my sins have nailed Him
Yet He bleeds and dies for me.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the book of Leviticus
13:1-2. 44-46
The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 'If a swelling
or scab or shiny spot appears on a man's skin,
a case of leprosy of the skin is to be suspected.
The man must be taken to Aaron, the priest, or
to one of the priests who are his sons.
'The man is leprous: he is unclean. The priest
must declare him unclean; he is suffering from
leprosy of the head. A man infected with leprosy
must wear his clothing torn and his hair
disordered; he must shield his upper lip and
cry, "Unclean, unclean." As long as the disease
lasts he must be unclean; and therefore he
must live apart; he must live outside the camp.'
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps 31 :1-2.5.11.R.v7
R) You are my refuge, O Lord;
you fill me with the joy of salvation.
Happy the man whose offence is forgiven,
whose sin is remitted.
O happy the man to whom the Lord
imputes no guilt,
in whose spirit is no guile. (R)
But now I have acknowledged my sins;
my guilt I did not hide.
I said: 'I will confess
my offence to the Lord.'
And you, Lord, have forgiven
the guilt of my sin. (R)
Rejoice, rejoice in the Lord,
exult, you just!
O come, ring out your joy,
all you upright of heart. (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St Paul
to the Corinthians 10:31-11 :1
Whatever you eat, whatever you drink,
whatever you do at all, do it for the glory of
God. Never do anything offensive to anyone -
to Jews or Greeks or to the Church of God; just
as I try to be helpful to everyone at all times, not
anxious for my own advantage but for the
advantage of everybody else, so that they may
be saved.
Take me for your model, as I take Christ.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation Stand
Alleluia, alleluia! Lk 7:16
A great prophet has appeared among us;
God has visited his people.
Alleluia!

Gospel Acclamation:

Gospel
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
Mark 1 :40-45
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
A leper came to Jesus and pleaded on his
knees: 'If you want to' he said 'you can cure
me.' Feeling sorry for him, Jesus stretched out
his hand and touched him. 'Of course I want
to!' he said, 'Be cured!' And the leprosy left him
at once and he was cured. Jesus immediately
sent him away and sternly ordered him, 'Mind
you say nothing to anyone, but go and show
yourself to the priest, and make the offering for
your healing prescribed by Moses as evidence
of your recovery.' The man went away, but then
started talking about it freely and telling the
story everywhere, so that Jesus could no
longer go openly into any town, but had to stay
outside in places where nobody lived. Even so,
people from all around would come to him.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

The Homily

The Nicene Creed
I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under
Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored
and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and
apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness
of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of
the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

The Prayer of the Faithful
Response example: Lord, in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.
After the concluding prayer all say: Amen.

Preface Ill of the Sundays in Ordinary Time
(The Priest may use a different Preface.)
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God.
For we know it belongs to your boundless glory,
that you came to the aid of mortal beings with
your divinity
and even fashioned for us a remedy out of
mortality itself,
that the cause of our downfall
might become the means of our salvation,
through Christ our Lord.
Through him the host of Angels adores your
majesty
and rejoices in your presence for ever.
May our voices, we pray, join with theirs
in one chorus of exultant praise, as we acclaim:

Sanctus Holy Holy Holy
Santo, Santo, Santo,
Panginoong Diyos na makapangyarihan
Napupuno ang langit at lupa ng kadakilaan Mo!

Hold me with Thy powerful hand:

Feed me till I want no more
Feed me till I want no more

Open now the crystal fountain
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through:
Strong deliverer, strong deliverer,
Be Thou still my strength and shield,
Be Thou still my strength and shield.

When I tread the verge of Jordan
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of death, and hell's destruction,
Land me safe on Canaan's side:
Songs of praises, songs of praises,
I will ever give to Thee,
I will ever give to Thee.

Make me a channel of Your peace
Where there is hatred, let me bring Your love
Where there is injury, Your pardon Lord

Where there's despair in life, let me bring hope
Where there is darkness, only light
And where there's sadness, ever joy

Oh Master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul

Make me a channel of Your peace
It is pardoning that we are pardoned
In giving of ourselves that we receive
And in dying that we're born to eternal life

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the book of Job
Job began to speak:
7:1 -4.6-7
Is not man's life on earth nothing more than
pressed service,
his time no better than hired drudgery?
Like the slave, sighing for the shade,
or the workman with no thought but his wages,
months of delusion I have assigned to me,
nothing for my own but nights of grief.
Lying in bed I wonder, 'When will it be day?'
Risen I think, 'How slowly evening comes!'
Restlessly I fret till twilight falls.
Swifter than a weaver's shuttle my days have
passed,
and vanished, leaving no hope behind.
Remember that my life is but a breath,
and that my eyes will never again see joy.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps 146:1-6.R.v3
R) Praise the Lord who heals the broken hearted.
Praise the Lord for he is good;
sing to our God for he is loving:
to him our praise is due. (R)
The Lord builds up Jerusalem
and bring back Israel 's exiles,
he heals the broken-hearted,
he binds up all their wounds.
He fixes the number of the stars;
he calls each one by its name. (R)
Our Lord is great and almighty;
his wisdom can never be measured.
The Lord raises the lowly;
he humbles the wicked to the dust. (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St Paul to
the Corinthians 9:16-19. 22-23
I do not boast of preaching the gospel, since it
1s a duty which has been laid on me; I should
be punished if I did not preach it If I had chosen
this work myself, I might have been paid for it,
but as I have not, it is a responsibility which has
been put into my hands. Do you know what my
reward is? It is this: in my preaching, to be able
to offer the Good News free, and not insist on
the rights which the gospel gives me.
So though I am not a slave of any man I have
made myself the slave of everyone so as to win
as many as I could. For the weak I made myself
weak. I made myself all things to all men in
order to save some at any cost; and I still do
this, for the sake of the gospel, to have a share
in its blessings.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Mt 8:17

Gospel Mark 1 :29-39
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
On leaving the synagogue, Jesus went with
James and John straight to the house of Simon
and Andrew. Now Simon's mother-in-law had
gone to bed with fever, and they told him about
her straightaway. He went to her, took her by
the hand and helped her up. And the fever left
her and she began to wait on them.
That evening, after sunset, they brought to
him all who were sick and those who were
possessed by devils. The whole town came
crowding round the door, and he cured many
who were suffering from diseases of one kind or
another; he also cast out many devils, but he
would not allow them to speak, because they
knew who he was.
In the morning, long before dawn, he got up
and left the house, and went off to a lonely place
and prayed there. Simon and his companions
set out in search of him, and when they found
him they said, 'Everybody is looking for you.' He
answered, 'Let us go elsewhere, to the
neighbouring country towns, so that I can
preach there too, because that is why I came.'
And he went all through Galilee, preaching in
their synagogues .and casting out devils.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

It is truly right to give you thanks,
truly just to give you glory, Father most holy,
for you are the one God living and true,
existing before all ages and abiding for all eternity,
dwelling in unapproachable light;
yet you, who alone are good, the source of life,
have made all that is,
so that you might fill your creatures with blessings
and bring joy to many of them by the glory of
your light.
And so, in your presence are countless hosts
of Angels,
who serve you day and night
and, gazing upon the glory of your face,
glorify you without ceasing.
With them we, too, confess your name in
exultation,
giving voice to every creature under heaven,
as we acclaim:

Eucharistic Prayer IV
(The priest may use a different Preface and Eucharistic Prayer).
We give you praise, Father most holy,
for you are great
and you have fashioned all your works
in wisdom and in love.
You formed man in your own image
and entrusted the whole world to his care,
so that in serving you alone, the Creator,
he might have dominion over all creatures.
And when through disobedience he had lost
your friendship,
you did not abandon him to the domain of death.
For you came in mercy to the aid of all,
so that those who seek might find you.
Time and again you offered them covenants
and through the prophets
taught them to look forward to salvation.
And you so loved the world, Father most holy,
that in the fullness of time
you sent your Only Begotten Son to be our
Saviour.
Made incarnate by the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary,
he shared our human nature
in all things but sin.
To the poor he proclaimed the good news of
salvation,
to prisoners, freedom,
and to the sorrowful of heart, joy.
To accomplish your plan,
he gave himself up to death,
and, rising from the dead,
he destroyed death and restored life.
And that we might live no longer for ourselves
but for him who died and rose again for us,
he sent the Holy Spirit from you, Father,
as the first fruits for those who believe,
so that, bringing to perfection his work in the world,
he might sanctify creation to the full.
Therefore, O Lord, we pray:
may this same Holy Spirit
graciously sanctify these offerings,
that they may become
the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ
for the celebration of this great mystery,
which he himself left us
as an eternal covenant.
For when the hour had come
for him to be glorified by you, Father most holy,
having loved his own who were in the world,
he loved them to the end:
and while they were at supper,
he took bread, blessed and broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way,
taking the chalice filled with the fruit of the vine,
he gave thanks,
and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
Do THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
And the people continue, acclaiming:
Save us, Saviour of the world,
for by your Cross and Resurrection
you have set us free.
Therefore, O Lord,
as we now celebrate the memorial of our
redemption,
we remember Christ's Death
and his descent to the realm of the dead,
we proclaim his Resurrection
and his Ascension to your right hand,
and, as we await his coming in glory,
we offer you his Body and Blood,
the sacrifice acceptable to you
which brings salvation to the whole world.
Look, O Lord, upon the Sacrifice
which you yourself have provided for your Church
and grant in your loving kindness '
to all who partake of this one Bread and one
Chalice
that, gathered into one body by the Holy Spirit,
they may truly become a living sacrifice in Christ
to the praise of your glory.
Therefore, Lord, remember now
all for whom we offer this sacrifice:
especially your servant N. our Pope
N. our Bishop, and the whole Order of Bishops
all the clergy, '
those who take part in this offering,
those gathered here before you,
your entire people,
and all who seek you with a sincere heart.
Remember also
those who have died in the peace of your Christ
and all the dead,
whose faith you alone have known.
To all of us, your children,
grant, O merciful Father,
that we may enter into a heavenly inheritance
with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
and with your Apostles and Saints in your
kingdom.
There, with the whole of creation,
freed from the corruption of sin and death
may we glorify you through Christ our Lord,
through whom you bestow on the world all
that is good.
Through him, and with him, and in him
O God, almighty Father, '
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen.

The Communion Rite Stand
The Priest invites all to join in the Lord's Prayer:
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us·
and lead us not into temptation, '
but deliver us from evil.
The Priest continues alone:
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, ...
For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
The Priest says:
Lord Jesus Christ... Amen.
The peace of the Lord be with you always.
And with your spirit.

The Deacon, or the Priest, adds:
Let us offer each other the sign of peace.

Behold the Lamb of God,
behold him who takes away the sins of the world.
Blessed are those called to the supper of the
Lamb.
Lord, I am not worthy
that you should enter under my roof,
but only say the word
and my soul shall be healed.
The priest or other minister says to each communicant:
The Body [Blood] of Christ.
Each communicant answers: Amen.

Communion 1:
The Lord hears the cry of the poor
Blessed be the Lord

I will bless the Lord at all times
His praise ever in my mouth
Let my soul glory in the Lord
For He hears the cry of the poor

Let the lowly hear and be glad
The Lord listens to their pleas
And to hearts broken He is near
For He hears the cry of the poor

Ev'ry spirit crushed He will save;
will be ransom for their lives;
will be safe shelter for their fears,
For He hears the cry of the poor

We proclaim the greatness of God,
His praise ever in our mouth;
ev'ry face brightened in His light,
For He hears the cry of the poor

Communion Antiphon Mt 5:5-6
Blessed are those who mourn, for they

hymn or canticle of praise may be sung.

Prayer after Communion Stand

Recessional:
For the healing of the nations,
Lord, we pray with one accord,
for a just and equal sharing
of the things that earth affords.
To a life of love in action
help us rise and pledge our word.

Lead us Father into freedom,
from despair your world release,
that, redeemed from war and hatred,
all may come and go in peace.
Show us how through care and goodness
fear will die and hope increase.

All that kills abundant living,
let it from the earth be banned:
pride of status, race or schooling,
dogmas that obscure your plan.
In our common quest for justice
may we hallow brief life's span.

You, Creator-God, have written
your great name on humankind;
for our growing in your likeness
bring the life of Christ to mind;
that by our response and service
earth its destiny may find.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the book of Deuteronomy
18:15-20
Moses said to the people: 'Your God will raise
up for you a prophet like myself, from among
yourselves, from your own brothers; to him you
must listen. This is what you yourselves asked
of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the
Assembly. "Do not let me hear again" you said
"the voice of the Lord my God, nor look any
longer on this great fire, or I shall die"; and the
Lord said to me, "All they have spoken is well
said. I will raise up a prophet like yourself for
them from their own brothers; I will put my
words into his mouth and he shall tell them all I
command him. The man who does not listen to
my words that he speaks in my name, shall be
held answerable to me for it. But the prophet
who presumes to say in my name a thing I have
not commanded him to say, or who speaks in
the name of other gods, that prophet shall die."'
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps 94:1-2.6-9.R.v9
R) O that today you would listen to his voice!
Harden not your hearts.
Come, ring out our joy to the Lord;
hail the rock who saves us.
Let us come before him, giving thanks,
with songs let us hail the Lord. (R)
Come in; let us kneel and bend low;
let us kneel before the God who made us
for he is our God and we
the people who belong to his pasture,
the flock that is led by his hand. (R)
O that today you would listen to his voice!
'Harden not your hearts as at Meribah,
as on that day at Massah in the desert
when your fathers put me to the test;
when they tried me, though they saw my work.' (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St Paul
to the Corinthians 7:32-35
I would like to see you free from all worry. An
unmarried man can devote himself to the
Lord's affairs, all he need worry about is
pleasing the Lord; but a married man has to
bother about the world's affairs and devote
himself to pleasing his wife: he is torn two
ways. In the same way an unmarried woman,
like a young girl, can devote herself to the
Lord's affairs; all she need worry about is being
holy in body and spirit. The married woman, on
the other hand, has to worry about the world's
affairs and devote herself to pleasing her
husband. I say this only to help you, not to put
a halter round your necks, but simply to make
sure that everything is as it should be, and that
you give your undivided attention to the Lord.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel
The Lord be with you.

Mark 1 :21-28
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
Jesus and his followers went as far as
Capernaum, and as soon as the sabbath came
Jesus went to the synagogue and began to
teach. And his teaching made a deep
impression on them because, unlike the
scribes, he taught them with authority.
In their synagogue just then there was a man
possessed by an unclean spirit, and it shouted,
'What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth?
Have you come to destroy us? I know who you
are: the Holy One of God.' But Jesus said
sharply, 'Be quite! Come out of him!' And the
unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions
and with a loud cry went out of him. The people
were so astonished that they started asking
each other what it all meant. 'Here is a
teaching that is new' they said 'and with
authority behind it: he gives orders even to
unclean spirits and they obey him.' And his
reputation rapidly spread everywhere, through
all the surrounding Galilean countryside.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

that is ours,
he humbled himself and was born of the Virgin;

unending death,
and by rising from the dead he gave us life
eternal.

You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
the fount of all holiness.
Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray,
by sending down your Spirit upon them
like the dewfall,
so that they may become for us
the Body and Blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
At the time he was betrayed
and entered willingly into his Passion,
he took bread and, giving thanks, broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice
and, once more giving thanks,
he gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
Save us, Saviour of the world,
for by your Cross and Resurrection,
you have set us free.
Therefore, as we celebrate
the memorial of his Death and Resurrection,
we offer you, Lord,
the Bread of life and the Chalice of salvation,
giving thanks that you have held us worthy
to be in your presence and minister to you.
Humbly we pray
that, partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ,
we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit.
Remember, Lord, your Church ,
spread throughout the world,
and bring her to the fullness of charity,
together with N. our Pope and N. our Bishop
and all the clergy.
Remember also our brothers and sisters
who have fallen asleep
in the hope of the resurrection,
and all who have died in your mercy:
welcome them into the light of your face.
Have mercy on us all , we pray,
that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with the blessed Apostles,
and all the Saints who have pleased you
throughout the ages,
we may merit to be coheirs to eternal life,
and may praise and glorify you
through your Son, Jesus Christ.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.

and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours

in accordance with your will.
Who live and reign for ever and ever.

Recessional:
O Lord my God when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works they hand has made
I see the stars I hear the mighty thunder
Thy pow’r throughout the universe displayed

Then sings my soul
My Saviour God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Saviour God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze

And when I think that God his Son not sparing, sent him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on the cross my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the prophet Jonah 3:1-5.10
The word of the Lord was addressed to Jonah:
'Up!' he said 'Go to Nineveh, the great city, and
preach to them as I told you to.' Jonah set out
and went to Nineveh in obedience to the word
of the Lord. Now Nineveh was a city great
beyond compare: it took three days to cross it.
Jonah went on into the city, making a day's
journey. He preached in these words, 'Only
forty days more and Nineveh is going to be
destroyed.' And the people of Nineveh
believed in God; they proclaimed a fast and put
on sackcloth, from the greatest to the least.
God saw their efforts to renounce their evil
behaviour. And God relented: he did not inflict
on them the disaster which he had threatened.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

'Psalm Ps. 24:4-9. R.v4
R) Lord, make me know your ways.
Lord, make me know your ways.
Lord, teach me your paths.
Make me walk in your truth, and teach me:
for you are God my saviour. (R)
Remember your mercy, Lord,
and the love you have shown from of old.
In your love remember me,
because of your goodness, O Lord. (A)
The Lord is good and upright.
He shows the path to those who stray,
he guides the humble in the right path;
he teaches his way to the poor. (R)

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St Paul to the
Corinthians 7:29-31
Brothers: our time is growing short. Those who
have wives should live as though they had
none, and those who mourn should live as
though they had nothing to mourn for; those
who are enjoying life should live as though there
were nothing to laugh about; those whose life is
buying things should live as though they had
nothing of their own; and those who have to deal
with the world should not become engrossed in
it. I say this because the world as we know it is
passing away.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Mark 1 :14-20
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord. ·
After John had been arrested, Jesus went into
Galilee. There he proclaimed the Good News
from God. 'The time has come' he said 'and the
kingdom of God is close at hand. Repent, and
believe the Good News.'
As he was walking along by the Sea of Galilee
he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a
net in the lake - for they were fishermen. And
Jesus said to them, 'Follow me and I will make
you into fishers of men.' And at once they left
their nets and followed him.
Going on a little further, he saw James son of
Zebedee and his brother John; they too were in
their boat, mending their nets. He called them at
once and, leaving their father Zebedee in the
boat with the men he employed, they went after
him.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Fruit of the earth, work of our hands
It will become the Bread of Life!

If the Priest says the two prayers of offering
aloud the response both times is:

The Priest completes additional personal
preparatory rites, and the people rise as he says:
Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.

And with your spirit.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right and just.

Preface I of Sundays in Ordinary Time
(The Priest may use a different Preface.)
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God,
through Christ our Lord.
For through his Paschal Mystery,
he accomplished the marvellous deed,
by which he has freed us from the yoke of sin
and death,
summoning us to the glory of being now called
a chosen race, a royal priesthood,
a holy nation, a people for your own possession,
to proclaim everywhere your mighty works,
for you have called us out of darkness
into your own wonderful light.
And so, with Angels and Archangels,
with Thrones and Dominions,
and with all the hosts and Powers of heaven,
we sing the hymn of your glory,
as without end we acclaim:

Sanctus:
Oshana, Eshanu sathatham

Eucharistic Prayer Ill
(The Priest may use a different Eucharistic Prayer.)
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
and all you have created
rightly gives you praise,
for through your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
by the power and working of the Holy Spirit,
you give life to all things and make them holy,
and you never cease to gather a people
to yourself,
so that from the rising of the sun to its setting
a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name.
Therefore, O Lord, we humbly implore you :
by the same Spirit graciously make holy
these gifts we have brought to you for
consecration,
that they may become the Body and >I< Blood
of your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
at whose command we celebrate these mysteries.
For on the night he was betrayed
he himself took bread,
and giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
broke the bread and gave it to his disciples,
saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice,
and, giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
Do THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
When we eat this Bread and drink this Cup,
we proclaim your Death, O Lord,
until you come again.
Therefore, O Lord, as we celebrate the memorial
of the saving Passion of your Son,
his wondrous Resurrection
and Ascension into heaven,
and as we look forward to his second coming,
we offer you in thanksgiving
this holy and living sacrifice.
Look, we pray, upon the oblation of your Church
and, recognizing the sacrificial Victim
by whose death
you willed to reconcile us to yourself,
grant that we, who are nourished
by the Body and Blood of your Son
and filled with his Holy Spirit,
may become one body, one spirit in Christ.
May he make of us
an eternal offering to you,
so that we may obtain an inheritance with your elect,
especially with the most Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with your blessed Apostles and glorious Martyrs
and with all the Saints,
on whose constant intercession in your presence
we rely for unfailing help.
May this Sacrifice of our reconciliation,
we pray, O Lord,
advance the peace and salvation of all the world.
Be pleased to confirm in faith and charity
your pilgrim Church on earth,
with your servant N. our Pope and N. our Bishop,
the Order of Bishops, all the clergy,
and the entire people you have gained for
your own.
Listen graciously to the prayers of this family,
whom you have summoned before you:
in your compassion, O merciful Father,
gather to yourself all your children
scattered throughout the world .
To our departed brothers and sisters
and to all who were pleasing to you
at their passing from this life,
give kind admittance to your kingdom.
There we hope to enjoy for ever the fullness
of your glory
through Christ our Lord,
through whom you bestow on the world all
that is good.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen.

The Communion Rite Stand
The Priest invites all to join in the Lord's Prayer:
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

The Priest continues alone:
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil,
graciously grant peace in our days,
that, by the help of your mercy,
we may be always free from sin
and safe from all distress,
as we await the blessed hope
and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

The Priest says:
Lord Jesus Christ,
who said to your Apostles:
Peace I leave you, my peace I give you,
look not on our sins,
but on the faith of your Church,
and graciously grant her peace and unity
in accordance with your will.
Who live and reign for ever and ever.
Amen.
The peace of the Lord be with you always.

Communion 1:
Bread of life, truth eternal,
Broken now to set us free.

Is here in Bread and Wine for me.

Lord, I know I am not worthy to receive you.
You speak the words and I am healed.
Here at your table, Love’s mystery:
One bread, one cup, one family.

Lord by your cross, you reconciled us to the Father.
We have only to believe.
Your sacrifice, our victory,
Now by your blood we are redeemed.

Lord, you gave your people manna in the desert,
Still you fulfil our every need.
Lord when we hunger, Lord, when we thirst,
We come to you and we receive

Communion 2:
Lord make me a means of Your Peace
Where there’s hatred grown
Let me sow Your love
Where there’s injury Lord
Let forgiveness be my sword
Lord make me a means of Your Peace

Lord make me a means of Your Peace
Where there’s sadness here
Let me sow Your joy
When the darkness nears
May Your light dispel our fears
Lord make me a means of Your Peace

Lord grant me to seek and to share
To forgive in Thee
You’ve forgiven me
For to die in Thee
Is eternal life to me
Lord make me a means of Your Peace

Prayer after Communion
Grant, we pray, almighty God,
that, receiving the grace
Stand
by which you bring us to new life,
we may always glory in your gift.
Through Christ our Lord
Amen.

Recessional:
Follow Me, follow Me,
Leave your home and family,
Leave your fishing nets and boats upon the shore.
Leave the seed you have sown,
Leave the crops that you’ve grown,
Leave the people you have known and follow Me.

The foxes have their holes,
And the swallows have their nests,
But the Son of man
Has no place to lie down.
I do not offer comfort,
I do not offer wealth,
But in Me will all happiness be found.

If you would follow Me,
You must leave old ways behind.
You must take My cross
And follow on My path.
You may be far from loved ones,
You may be far from home,
But My Father will welcome you at last.

Although I go away
You will never be alone.
For the Spirit will be
There to comfort you.
Though all of you may scatter,
Each follow his own path,
Still the Spirit of love will lead you home.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the first book of Samuel
3:3-10. 19
Samuel was lying in the sanctuary of the Lord
where the ark of God was, when the Lord
called, 'Samuel! Samuel!' He answered, 'Here I
am.' Then he ran to Eli and said, 'Here I am,
since you called me.' Eli said, 'I did not call. Go
back and lie down.' So he went and lay down.
Once again the Lord called, 'Samuel! Samuel!'
Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, 'Here
I am, since you called me.' He replied, 'I did not
call you, my son; go back and lie down.'
Samuel had as yet no knowledge of the Lord
and the word of the Lord had not yet been
revealed to him. Once again the Lord called,
the third time. He got up and went to Eli and
said, 'Here I am, since you called me.' Eli then
understood that it was the Lord who was calling
the boy, and he said to Samuel, 'Go and lie
down, and if someone calls say, "Speak, Lord,
your servant is listening."' So Samuel went and
lay down in his place.
The Lord then came and stood by, calling as
he had done before, 'Samuel! Samuel!'
Samuel answered, 'Speak, Lord, your servant
is listening.'
Samuel grew up and the Lord was with him
and let no word of his fall to the ground.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm Ps 39:2.4.7-10.R.wS.9
R) Here I am, Lord!
I come to do your will.
I waited, I waited for the Lord
and he stooped down to me;
he heard my cry.
He put a new song into my mouth,
praise of our God. (R)
You do not ask for sacrifice and offerings,
but an open ear.
You do not ask for holocaust and victim.
Instead, here am I. (R)
In the scroll of the book it stands written
that I should do your will.
My God, I delight in your law
in the depth of my heart. (R)
Your justice I have proclaimed
in the great assembly.
My lips I have not sealed;
you know it, O Lord. (R)
R) Here I am, Lord!
I come to do your will.

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St Paul to the
Corinthians 6:13-15. 17-20
The body is not meant for fornication; it is for
the Lord, and the Lord for the body. God who
raised the Lord from the dead, will by his power
raise us up too.
You know, surely, that your bodies are
members making up the body of Christ; anyone
who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him.
Keep away from fornication. All the other sins
are committed outside the body; but to
fornicate is to sin against your own body. Your
body, you know, is the temple of the Holy Spirit,
who is in you since you received him from God.
You are not your own property; you have been
bought and paid for. That is why you should
use your body for the glory of God.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel John 1 :35-42
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to John.
Glory to you, O Lord.
As John stood with two of his disciples, Jesus
passed, and John stared hard at him and said,
'Look, there is the lamb of God.' Hearing this,
the two disciples followed Jesus. Jesus turned
round, saw them following and said, 'What do
you want?' They answered, 'Rabbi,' - which
means Teacher - 'where do you live?' 'Come
and see' he replied; so they went and saw
where he lived, and stayed with him the rest of
that day. It was about the tenth hour.
One of these two who became followers of
Jesus after hearing what John had said was
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter. Early next
morning, Andrew met his brother and said to
him, 'We have found the Messiah' - which
means the Christ - and he took Simon to Jesus.
Jesus looked hard at him and said, 'You are
Simon son of John; you are to be called
Cephas' - meaning Rock.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

and glorified,

I believe in one, holy, catholic and
apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness
of sins

the dead

The Prayer of the Faithful
Response example: Lord, in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.
After the concluding prayer all say: Amen. Sit

THE LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST
The offerings are brought to the altar.
A hymn may be sung.
If the Priest says the two prayers of offering
aloud the response both times is:
Blessed be God for ever.

Offertory:
I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I have heard my people cry.
All who dwell in deepest sin
My hand will save.
I who made the stars of night,
I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them?
Whom shall I send?

Here I am Lord. Is it I Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go Lord, if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of snow and rain,
I have borne my people's pain.
I have wept for love of them.
They turn away.
I will break their hearts of stone,
Give them hearts for love alone.
I will speak my word to them,
Whom shall I send?

I, the Lord of wind and flame,
I will tend the poor and lame.
I will set a feast for them.
My hand will save.
Finest bread I will provide
Till their hearts be satisfied.
I will give my life to them.
Whom shall I send?

The Priest completes additional personal
preparatory rites, and the people rise as he says:
Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
The people reply:
May the Lord accept the sacrifice
at your hands
for the praise and glory of his name,
for our good
and the good of all his holy Church.

Prayer over the Offerings
Grant us, O Lord, we pray,
that we may participate worthily in these
mysteries,
for whenever the memorial of this sacrifice is
celebrated
the work of our redemption is accomplished.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

The Eucharistic Prayer
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right and just.

Preface for Eucharistic Prayer IV
It is truly right to give you thanks,
truly just to give you glory, Father most holy,
for you are the one God living and true,
existing before all ages and abiding for all eternity,
dwelling in unapproachable light;
yet you, who alone are good, the source of life,
have made all that is,
so that you might fill your creatures with blessings
and bring joy to many of them by the glory of
your light.
And so, in your presence are countless hosts
of Angels,
who serve you day and night
and, gazing upon the glory of your face,
glorify you without ceasing.
With them we, too, confess your name in
exultation,
giving voice to every creature under heaven,
as we acclaim:

Sanctus
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord
God of power and might
Heaven and Earth are full of Your glory
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest
Bless-ed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest

Kneel

Eucharistic Prayer IV
(The priest may use a different Preface and
Eucharistic Prayer).
We give you praise, Father most holy,
for you are great
and you have fashioned all your works
in wisdom and in love.
You formed man in your own image
and entrusted the whole world to his care,
so that in serving you alone, the Creator,
he might have dominion over all creatures.
And when through disobedience he had lost
your friendship,
you did not abandon him to the domain of death.
For you came in mercy to the aid of all,
so that those who seek might find you.
Time and again you offered them covenants
and through the prophets
taught them to look forward to salvation.
And you so loved the world, Father most holy,
that in the fullness of time
you sent your Only Begotten Son to be our Saviour.
Made incarnate by the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary,
he shared our human nature
in all things but sin.
To the poor he proclaimed the good news of
salvation,
to prisoners, freedom,
and to the sorrowful of heart, joy.
To accomplish your plan,
he gave himself up to death,
and, rising from the dead,
he destroyed death and restored life.
And that we might live no longer for ourselves
but for him who died and rose again for us,
he sent the Holy Spirit from you, Father,
as the first fruits for those who believe,
so that, bringing to perfection his work in the world,
he might sanctify creation to the full.
Therefore, O Lord, we pray:
may this same Holy Spirit
graciously sanctify these offerings,
that they may become
the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ
for the celebration of this great mystery,
which he himself left us
as an eternal covenant.
For when the hour had come
for him to be glorified by you, Father most holy,
having loved his own who were in the world,
he loved them to the end:
and while they were at supper,
he took bread, blessed and broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
T AKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FDR THIS JS MY B ODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way,
taking the chalice filled with the fruit of the vine,
he gave thanks,
and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying:
T AKE THI S, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
Do THIS JN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
And the people continue, acclaiming:
Save us, Saviour of the world ,
for by your Cross and Resurrection
you have set us free.
Therefore, O Lord,
as we now celebrate the memorial of our
redemption,
we remember Christ's Death
and his descent to the realm of the dead,
we proclaim his Resurrection
and his Ascension to your right hand,
and, as we await his coming in glory,
we offer you his Body and Blood,
the sacrifice acceptable to you which brings salvation to the whole world.
Look, O Lord, upon the Sacrifice
which you yourself have provided for your Church,
and grant in your loving kindness
to all who partake of this one Bread and one
Chalice
that, gathered into one body by the Holy Spirit,
they may truly become a living sacrifice in Christ
to the praise of your glory.
Therefore, Lord, remember now
all for whom we offer this sacrifice:
especially your servant N. our Pope,
N. our Bishop, and the whole Order of Bishops,
all the clergy,
those who take part in this offering,
those gathered here before you,
your entire people,
and all who seek you with a sincere heart.
Remember also
those who have died in the peace of your Christ
and all the dead,
whose faith you alone have known.
To all of us, your children,
grant, O merciful Father,
that we may enter into a heavenly inheritance
with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
and with your Apostles and Saints in your
kingdom.
There, with the whole of creation,
freed from the corruption of sin and death,
may we glorify you through Christ our Lord,
through whom you bestow on the world all
that is good.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen.

The Communion Rite Stand
The Priest invites all to join in the Lord's Prayer:
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against
us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

The Priest continues alone:
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, . ..
For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

Oh lamb so true, I surrender to you

And when this world has come to end And paradise with you begins
Well done You'll say, when I see, your face

Your blood has made me new
Oh lamb so true, I surrender to you (x2)

Jesus you are

You shall cross the barren desert
But you shall not die of thirst
You shall wander far in safety
Though you do not know the way
You shall speak your words to foreign men
And they will understand
You shall see the face of God and live

Be not afraid,
I go before you always
Come, follow me and I will give you rest

If you pass through raging waters in the sea
You shall not drown
If you walk amid the burning flames
You shall not be harmed
If you stand before the power of hell
And death is at your side
Know that I am with you through it all

Blessed are the poor
For the kingdom shall be theirs
Blest are you that weep and mourn
For one day you shall laugh
And if wicked men insult and hate you
All because of me
Blessed, blessed are you.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the prophet Isaiah 55:1-11
Oh, come to the water all you who are thirsty;
though you have no money, come!
Buy corn without money, and eat,
and, at no cost, wine and milk.
Why spend money on what is not bread,
your wages on what fails to satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and you will have good things to eat
and rich food to enjoy.
Pay attention, come to me;
listen, and your soul will live.
With you I will make an everlasting covenant
out of the favours promised to David.
See, I have made of you a witness to the peoples,
a leader and a master of the nations.
See, you will summon a nation you never knew,
those unknown will come hurrying to you,
for the sake of the Lord your God,
of the Holy One of Israel who will glorify you.
Seek the Lord while he is still to be found,
call to him while he is still near.
Let the wicked man abandon his way,
the evil man his thoughts.
Let him tum back to the Lord who will take pity on him,
to our God who is rich in forgiving;
for my thoughts are not your thoughts,
my ways are not your ways - it is the Lord who speaks.
Yes, the heavens are as high above earth
as my ways are above your ways,
my thoughts above your thoughts.
Yes, as the rain and the snow come down from
the heavens and do not return without watering
the earth, making it yield and giving growth to
provide seed for the sower and bread for the
eating, so the word that goes from my mouth
does not return to me empty, without carrying out
my will and succeeding in what it was sent to do.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm
R) With joy you will draw water
from the wells of salvation.
Truly, God is my salvation,
I trust, I shall not fear.
Is 12:2-6 R.3
For the Lord is my strength, my song,
he became my saviour.
With joy you will draw water
from the wells of salvation. (R)
Give thanks to the Lord, give praise to his name!
Make his mighty deeds knows to the peoples!
Declare the greatness of his name. (R)
Sing a psalm to the Lord
for he has done glorious deeds,
make them known to all the earth!
People of Zion, sing and shout for joy
for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.
(R)

Second Reading
A reading from the first letter of St John 5:1-9
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ
has been begotten by God;
and whoever loves the Father that begot him
loves the child whom he begets.
We can be sure that we love God's children
if we love God himself and do what he has
commanded us;
this is what loving God is -
keeping his commandments;
and his commandments are not difficult,
because anyone who has been begotten by God
has already overcome the world;
this is the victory over the world -
our faith.
Who can overcome the world?
Only the man who believes that Jesus is the
Son of God:
Jesus Christ who came by water and blood,
not with water only,
but with water and blood;
with the Spirit as another witness -
since the Spirit is the truth -
so that there are three witnesses,
the Spirit, the water and the blood,
and all three of them agree.
We accept the testimony of human witnesses,
but God's testimony is much greater,
and this is God's testimony,
given as evidence for his Son.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation Stand
Alleluia, alleluia! Cf. Jn 1 :29
John saw Jesus coming towards him, and said:
This is the Lamb of God who takes away the
sin of the world.
Alleluia!

Gospel Mark 1:7-11
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
In the course of his preaching John the Baptist
said, 'Someone is following me, someone who
is more powerful than I am, and I am not fit to
kneel down and undo the strap of his sandals.
I have baptised you with water, but he will
baptise you with the Holy Spirit.'
It was at this time that Jesus came from
Nazareth in Galilee and was baptised in the
Jordan by John. No sooner had he come up out
of the water than he saw the heavens torn apart
and the Spirit, like a dove, descending on him.
And a voice came from heaven, 'You are my
Son, the Beloved; my favour rests on you.'
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

The Homily

The Nicene Creed
I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit All bow
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored
and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

The Prayer of the Faithful

THE LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST
The offerings are brought to the altar.
A hymn may be sung. If the Priest says the two
prayers of offering aloud, the response both times
is: Blessed be God for ever.
The people rise as the Priest says:
Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
The people reply:
May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands
for the praise and glory of his name,
for our good
and the good of all his holy Church.

Prayer over the Offerings
Accept, O Lord, the offerings
we have brought to honour the revealing of your
beloved Son,
so that the oblation of your faithful
may be transformed into the sacrifice of him
who willed in his compassion
to wash away the sins of the world.
Who lives and reigns for ever and ever.
Amen.

The Eucharistic Prayer
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right and just.

Preface: The Baptism of the Lord
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God.
For in the waters of the Jordan
you revealed with signs and wonders a new Baptism,
so that through the voice that came down from heaven
we might come to believe in your Word dwelling
among us,
and by the Spirit's descending in the likeness of a dove
we might know that Christ your Servant
has been anointed with the oil of gladness
and sent to bring the good news to the poor.
And so, with the Powers of heaven,
we worship you constantly on earth,
and before your majesty
without end we acclaim:
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest. Kneel

Eucharistic Prayer Ill
(The Priest may use a different Eucharistic Prayer.)
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
and all you have created
rightly gives you praise,
for through your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
by the power and working of the Holy Spirit,
you give life to all things and make them holy,
and you never cease to gather a people to yourself,
so that from the rising of the sun to its setting
a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name.
Therefore, O Lord, we humbly implore you:
by the same Spirit graciously make holy
these gifts we have brought to you for
consecration,
that they may become the Body and Blood
of your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,
at whose command we celebrate these mysteries.
For on the night he was betrayed
he himself took bread,
and giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
broke the bread and gave it to his disciples,
saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice,
and, giving you thanks, he said the blessing,
and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
We proclaim your Death, O Lord,
and profess your Resurrection
until you come again.
Therefore, O Lord, as we celebrate the memorial
of the saving Passion of your Son,
his wondrous Resurrection
and Ascension into heaven,
and as we look forward to his second coming,
we offer you in thanksgiving
this holy and living sacrifice.
Look, we pray, upon the oblation of your Church
and, recognising the sacrificial Victim
by whose death
you willed to reconcile us to yourself,
grant that we, who are nourished
by the Body and Blood of your Son
and filled with his Holy Spirit,
may become one body, one spirit in Christ.
May he make of us
an eternal offering to you,
so that we may obtain an inheritance with
your elect,
especially with the most Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with your blessed Apostles and glorious
Martyrs
and with all the Saints,
on whose constant intercession in your presence
we rely for unfailing help.
May this Sacrifice of our reconciliation,
we pray, O Lord,
advance the peace and salvation of all the world.
Be pleased to confirm in faith and charity
your pilgrim Church on earth,
with your servant N. our Pope and N. our Bishop,
the Order of Bishops, all the clergy,
and the entire people you have gained for your own.
Listen graciously to the prayers of this family,
whom you have summoned before you:
in your compassion, O merciful Father,
gather to yourself all your children
scattered throughout the world.
To our departed brothers and sisters
and to all who were pleasing to you
at their passing from this life,
give kind admittance to your kingdom.
There we hope to enjoy for ever the fullness
of your glory
through Christ our Lord,
through whom you bestow on the world
all that is good.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.
The people acclaim: Amen.

Recessional
I heard the voice of Jesus say,
‘Come unto me and rest;
lay down, thou weary one, lay down
thy head upon my breast.’
I came to Jesus as I was,
so weary, worn and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
and he has made me glad.

I heard the voice of Jesus say,
‘Behold, I freely give
the living water, thirsty one;
stoop down and drink and live.’
I came to Jesus, and I drank
of that life-giving stream;
my thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
and now I live in him.

I heard the voice of Jesus say,
‘I am this dark world’s light;
look unto me, thy morn shall rise,
and all thy day be bright.’
I looked to Jesus, and I found
in him my star, my sun;
and in that light of life I’ll walk
till trav’lling days are done.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading
A reading from the book of Ecclesiasticus
24:1-2,8-12
Wisdom speaks her own praises,
in the midst of her people she glories in herself.
She opens her mouth in the assembly of the Most High,
she glories in herself in the presence of the Mighty One;
'Then the creator of all things instructed me,
and he who created me fixed a place for my tent.
He said, "Pitch your tent in Jacob,
make Israel your inheritance."
From eternity, in the beginning, he created me,
and for eternity I shall remain.
I ministered before him in the holy tabernacle,
and thus was I established on Zion.
In the beloved city he has given me rest,
and in Jerusalem I wield my authority.
I have taken root in a privileged people,
in the Lord's property, in his inheritance.'
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Psalm 147:12-15, 19-20
R) The Word was made flesh, and lived among us.
O praise the Lord, Jerusalem!
Zion, praise your God!
He has strengthened the bars of your gates
he has blessed the children within you. (R)
He established peace on your borders,
he feeds you with finest wheat.
He sends out his word to the earth
and swiftly runs his command. (R)
He makes his word known to Jacob,
to Israel his laws and decrees.
He has not dealt thus with other nations;
he has not taught them his decrees. (R)

Second Reading
Ephesians 1 :3-6, 15-18
Blessed be God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us with all the spiritual blessings of
heaven in Christ.
Before the world was made, he chose us, chose us
in Christ,
to be holy and spotless, and to live through love in
his presence,
determining that we should become his adopted
sons, through Jesus Christ
for his own kind purposes,
to make us praise the glory of his grace,
his free gift to us in the Beloved.
That will explain why I, having once heard about your
faith in the Lord Jesus, and the love that you show
towards all the saints, have never failed to remember
you in my prayers and to thank God for you. May the
God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, give
you a spirit of wisdom and perception of what is
revealed, to bring you to full knowledge of him. May
he enlighten the eyes of your mind so that you can
see what hope his call holds for you, what rich glories
he has promised the saints will inherit.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation Stand
Alleluia, alleluia! cf.1Tim3:16
Glory be to you, O Christ, proclaimed to the pagans.
Glory be to you, O Christ, believed in by the world.
Alleluia!

Gospel John 1 :1-18
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke.
Glory to you, O Lord.
In the beginning was the Word:
and the Word was with God
and the Word was God.
He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things came to be,
not one thing had its being but through him.
All that came to be had life in him
and that life was the light of men,
a light that shines in the dark,
a light that darkness could not overpower.
A man came, sent by God.
His name was John.
He came as a witness,
as a witness to speak for the light,
so that everyone might believe through him.
He was not the light,
only a witness to speak for the light.
The Word was the true light
that enlightens all men;
and he was coming into the world.
He was in the world
that had its being through him,
and the world did not know him.
He came to his own domain
and his own people did not accept him.
But to all who did accept him
he gave power to become children of God,
to all who believe in the name of him
who was born not out of human stock
or urge of the flesh
or will of man
but of God himself.
The Word was made flesh,
he lived among us,
and we saw his glory,
the glory that is his as the only Son of the Father,
full of grace and truth.
John appears as his witness. He proclaims:
'This is the one of whom I said :
He who comes after me ranks before me
because he existed before me.'
Indeed, from his fullness we have, all of us, received – yes,
grace in return for grace,
since, though the Law was given through Moses,
grace and truth have come through Jesus Christ.
No one has ever seen God;
it is the only Son, who is nearest to the Father's heart,
who has made him known.
The Gospel of the Lord.

The Homily

The Nicene Creed
I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
Sit
Stand
All bow
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored
and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

The Prayer of the Faithful
Response example: Lord, in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.
After the concluding prayer all say: Amen. Sit

THE LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST
The offerings are brought to the altar.
A hymn may be sung. If the Priest says the two
prayers of offering aloud, the response both times is:
Blessed be God for ever.
The people rise as the Priest says:
Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
The people reply:
May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands
for the praise and glory of his name,
for our good
and the good of all his holy Church.

Prayer over the Offerings
Sanctify, O Lord, the offerings we make
on the Nativity of your Only Begotten Son,
for by it you show us the way of truth
and promise the life of the heavenly Kingdom.
Through Christ our Lord.

The Eucharistic Prayer
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right and just.

Preface Christ the Light
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God.
For in the mystery of the Word made flesh
a new light of your glory has shone upon the eyes
of our mind,
so that, as we recognize in him God made visible,
we may be caught up through him in love of things
invisible.
And so, with Angels and Archangels,
with Thrones and Dominions,
and with all the hosts and Powers of heaven,
we sing the hymn of your glory,
as without end we acclaim:
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest. Kneel

Eucharistic Prayer II
You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
the fount of all holiness.
Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray,
by sending down your Spirit upon them
like the dewfall,
so that they may become for us
the Body and Blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
At the time he was betrayed
and entered willingly into his Passion,
he took bread and, giving thanks, broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice
and, once more giving thanks,
he gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
The mystery of faith.
The people continue, acclaiming:
Save us, Saviour of the world,
for by your Cross and Resurrection,
you have set us free.
Therefore, as we celebrate
the memorial of his Death and Resurrection,
we offer you, Lord,
the Bread of life and the Chalice of salvation,
giving thanks that you have held us worthy
to be in your presence and minister to you.
Humbly we pray
that, partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ,
we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit.
Remember, Lord, your Church,
spread throughout the world,
and bring her to the fullness of charity,
together with N. our Pope and N. our Bishop
and all the clergy.
Remember also our brothers and sisters
who have fallen asleep
in the hope of the resurrection,
and all who have died in your mercy:
welcome them into the light of your face.
Have mercy on us all, we pray,
that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
with the blessed Apostles,
and all the Saints who have pleased you
throughout the ages,
we may merit to be coheirs to eternal life,
and may praise and glorify you
through your Son, Jesus Christ.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honour is yours,
for ever and ever.

The people acclaim: Amen
