00:00In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

00:18The Lord be with you, and with your spirit.

00:21Dear brothers and sisters, today in many churches throughout the world,

00:25we mark what we call annually Red Wednesday, which is a day for us to pray.

00:31We are being invited to pray for persecuted Christians throughout the whole world.

00:36And so I'm offering this votive mass of the Holy Martyrs,

00:40to as the intercession of our brothers and sisters who are already in heaven,

00:45who are there as a result of being killed for the faith,

00:49that they may pray for us and for all the Christians of the world,

00:52especially those who are being persecuted because of their practice of the Christian faith.

00:59I'm also offering this mass for you and your intentions.

01:02Dear brothers and sisters, let us acknowledge our sins,

01:05and so prepare ourselves to celebrate the sacred mysteries.

01:10You were sent to heal the contrite of heart. Lord, have mercy.

01:15You came to call sinners. Christ, have mercy.

01:17You are seated at the right hand of the Father to intercede for us.

01:23Lord, have mercy.

01:25May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins,

01:29and bring us to everlasting life.

01:32Let us pray.

01:35May the sight of the great number of your holy martyrs gladden us, O Lord,

01:40making our faith stronger,

01:43and bringing us consolation by the prayers of them all.

01:46Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,

01:49who lives and reigns with you,

01:51in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

01:53God, forever and ever. Amen.

02:00A reading from the second book of Maccabees.

02:04There were seven brothers who were arrested with their mother.

02:08The king tried to force them to taste pig's flesh,

02:11which the law forbids,

02:13by torturing them with whips and scourges.

02:17The mother was especially admirable and worthy of honour.

02:23Sorry, of honourable remembrance.

02:26For she watched the death of seven sons in the course of a single day,

02:30and endured it resolutely because of her hopes in the Lord.

02:35Indeed, she encouraged each of them in the language of their ancestors.

02:39Filled with noble conviction,

02:42she reinforced her womanly argument with manly courage,

02:46saying to them,

02:48I do not know how you appeared in my womb.

02:51It was not I who endowed you with breath and life.

02:54I had not the shaping of your every part.

02:57It is the creator of the world,

03:00ordaining the process of man's breath,

03:02and presiding over the origin of all things,

03:04who in his mercy will most surely give you back both breath and life,

03:10saying that you now despise your own existence for the sake of his laws.

03:16Antiochus thought he was being ridiculed,

03:19suspecting insult in the tone of her voice,

03:21and as the youngest was still alive,

03:24he appealed to him not with mere words,

03:27but with promises on oath

03:28to make him both rich and happy

03:31if he would abandon the traditions of his ancestors.

03:35He would make him his friend and entrust him in public office.

03:39The young man took no notice at all,

03:42and so the king then appealed to the mother,

03:45urging her to advise the youth to save his life.

03:48After a great deal of urging on his part,

03:51she agreed to try persuasion on her son.

03:53Bending over him,

03:55she fooled the cruel tyrant with these words

03:58uttered in the language of the ancestors.

04:01My son, have pity on me.

04:04I carried you nine months in my womb

04:06and suckled you three years,

04:08fed you and reared you

04:10to the age you are now

04:11and cherished you.

04:13I implore you, my child,

04:15observe heaven and earth,

04:18consider all that is in them,

04:20and acknowledge that God made them out

04:23of what did not exist,

04:25and that mankind comes into being in the same way.

04:29Do not fear this executioner,

04:32but prove yourself worthy of your brothers

04:34and make death welcome,

04:37so that in the day of mercy

04:38I may receive you back in your brother's company.

04:42She had scarcely ended when the young man said,

04:45What are you all waiting for?

04:47I will not comply with the king's ordinance.

04:50I obey the ordinance of the law

04:52given to our ancestors through Moses.

04:55As for you, sir,

04:57who have contrived every kind of evil

04:59against the Hebrews,

05:01you will certainly not escape the hands of God.

05:04Lord, when your glory appears,

05:17my joy will be full.

05:20Lord, hear a cause that is just,

05:22pay heed to my cry.

05:24Turn your ear to my prayer,

05:26no deceit is on my lips.

05:28Lord, when your glory appears,

05:30my joy will be full.

05:33I kept my feet firmly in your paths.

05:36There was no faltering in my steps.

05:39I am here, and I call.

05:41You will hear me, O God.

05:43Turn your ear to me.

05:45Hear my words.

05:47Lord, when your glory appears,

05:49my joy will be full.

05:51Guard me as the apple of your eye.

05:54Hide me in the shadow of your wings.

05:57Ask for me in my justice,

05:59I shall see your face,

06:00and be filled when I awake

06:02with the sight of your glory.

06:05Lord, when your glory appears,

06:07my joy will be full.

06:13Alleluia, alleluia!

06:14I have chosen you from the world,

06:16says the Lord,

06:17to go and bear fruit that will last.

06:19Alleluia!

06:20The Lord be with you.

06:26A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke.

06:32While the people were listening,

06:34Jesus went on to tell a parable,

06:36because he was near Jerusalem,

06:39and they imagined that the kingdom of God

06:41was going to show itself then and there.

06:44Accordingly, he said,

06:46a man of noble birth

06:47went to a distant country

06:49to be appointed king

06:50and afterwards returned.

06:53He summoned ten of his servants

06:55and gave them ten pounds.

06:58Do business with these,

07:00he told them,

07:01until I get back.

07:04But his compatriots detested him

07:07and sent a delegation

07:08to follow him with this message,

07:10We do not want this man

07:12to be our king.

07:15Now on his return,

07:16having received his appointment as king,

07:19he sent for those servants

07:20to whom he had given the money

07:22to find out what profit each had made.

07:26The first came in and said,

07:27Sir, your one pound has brought in ten.

07:31Well done, my good servant,

07:33he replied.

07:34Since you have proved yourself faithful

07:37in a very small thing,

07:38you shall have the government

07:40of ten cities.

07:42Then came the second and said,

07:45Sir, your one pound has made five.

07:49To this one also he said,

07:51and you shall be in charge of five cities.

07:54Next came the other and said,

07:56Sir, here is your pound.

08:00I put it away safely in a piece of linen

08:03because I was afraid of you.

08:05For you are an exacting man.

08:09You pick up what you have not put down

08:11and reap what you have not sown.

08:14You wicked servant,

08:16he said,

08:16out of your own mouth I condemn you.

08:19So you knew I was an exacting man,

08:21picking up what I have not put down

08:23and reaping what I have not sown.

08:26Then why did you not put my money in the bank?

08:30On my return I could have drawn it out with interest.

08:35And he said to those standing by,

08:37Take the pound from him

08:38and give it to the man who has ten pounds.

08:41And I said to him,

08:43But sir,

08:44he has ten pounds.

08:48I tell you,

08:49to everyone who has will be given more,

08:53but from the man who has not,

08:55even what he has will be taken away.

08:58But as for my enemies who did not want me for their king,

09:03bring them here

09:04and execute them in my presence.

09:08When he had said this,

09:10he went on going up to Jerusalem.

09:15The Gospel of the Lord

09:17he goes on to Jerusalem.

09:18The Gospel of the Lord

09:35the God university

09:38is Since God's nascent.

09:40Yeah.

09:42Gregg.

09:43Let's go.

10:13Great brothers and sisters of my sacrifice,

10:43and yours may be acceptable to God, the Almighty Father.

10:47May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and the glory of his name,

10:52for our good and the good of all his holy church.

10:55Receive, we pray, O Lord, the offerings of your people in honor of the passion of your holy martyrs,

11:02and may the gifts that gave your holy martyrs courage under persecution

11:06make us all true, steadfast in all trials. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

11:13The Lord be with you, and with your spirit lift up your hearts.

11:17We lift them up to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.

11:21It is right and just.

11:23It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation, always and everywhere, to give you thanks.

11:31Lord, Holy Father, Almighty and Eternal God.

11:34For you are glorified when your saints are praised.

11:38Their very sufferings are but wonders of your might.

11:42In your mercy you give ardor to their faith.

11:45To their endurance you can firm resolve.

11:47And in their struggle the victory is yours through Christ our Lord.

11:52Therefore, all creatures of heaven and earth, sing a new song in adoration.

11:57And we, with all the hosts of angels, cry out, and without end we acclaim.

12:03Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of hosts,

12:07heaven and earth are full of your glory.

12:10Hosanna in the highest.

12:12Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

12:15Hosanna in the highest.

12:17You are indeed holy, O Lord, a fount of all holiness.

12:24Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray, by sending down your Spirit upon them like the twofold,

12:30so that they may become for us the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.

12:36At the time he was betrayed and entered willingly into his passion, he took bread.

12:41And giving thanks, broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying,

12:45Take this, all of you, and eat of it, for this is my body, which will be given up for you.

13:15In a similar way, when supper was ended, he took the chalice.

13:23And once more giving thanks, he gave it to his disciples, saying,

13:27Take this, all of you, and drink from it.

13:29For this is the chalice of my blood, the blood of the new, and eternal covenant,

13:36which will be poured out for you and for many, for the forgiveness of sins.

13:41Do this in memory of me.

13:59The mystery of faith.

14:12Save us, Savior of the world, for by your cross and resurrection you have set us free.

14:18Therefore, as we celebrate the memorial of his death and resurrection,

14:22we offer you, Lord, the bread of life and the chalice of salvation,

14:26giving thanks that you have held us worthy to be in your presence and minister to you.

14:32Humbly we pray that, partaking of the body and blood of Christ,

14:36we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit.

14:39Remember, Lord, your church spread throughout the world,

14:42and bring her to the fullness of charity,

14:44together with Leo, our Pope, and Charles, our Bishop, and all the clergy.

14:48Remember, your servant Francis, whom you have called from this world to yourself,

14:54grant that he who was united with your son in a death like his

14:57may also be one with him in his resurrection.

15:02Remember also our brothers and sisters who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection,

15:07and all who have died in your mercy, welcome them into the light of your face.

15:12Have mercy on us all, we pray,

15:15that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,

15:17with Blessed Joseph, her spouse,

15:20with the blessed apostles and all the saints who have pleased you throughout the ages,

15:25we may merit to be co-heirs to eternal life,

15:28and may praise and glorify you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

15:32Through him, and with him, and in him, O God, Almighty Father,

15:41in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

15:43all glory and honor is yours forever and ever. Amen.

15:50At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say,

15:54Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

15:59Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

16:03Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses,

16:08as we forgive those who trespass against us.

16:11And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

16:16Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously.

16:20Grant peace in our days,

16:22that by the help of your mercy,

16:24we may be always free from sin

16:26and safe from all distress,

16:28as we await the blessed hope

16:29and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

16:32For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours,

16:35now and forever, Lord Jesus Christ,

16:38who said to your apostles,

16:39Peace I leave you, my peace I give you.

16:42Look not on our sins, but on the faith of your church.

16:45And graciously grant her peace and unity

16:48in accordance with your will,

16:49who live and reign forever and ever.

16:52Amen.

16:53The peace of the Lord be with you always.

16:57Let us offer each other the sign of peace.

16:59Peace be with you.

17:10Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world.

17:13Have mercy on us.

17:14Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world.

17:18Have mercy on us.

17:23Lord, let me take away the sins of the honored y telling of all that amen

17:32in the midst of theiedo.

17:33And we'll be taking the sins of the holy body.

18:08Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb.

18:11Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

18:19My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most blessed sacrament.

18:25I love you above all things and I desire to receive you into my soul.

18:30Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, commonly, spiritually into my heart,

18:35I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you.

18:41Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.

18:47Let us pray.

18:49Preserve in us your gift, O Lord, and may what we have received at your hands

18:56for the commemoration of all your blessed martyrs bring us salvation and peace.

19:02Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

19:17The Lord be with you.

19:19May Almighty God bless you, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

19:25Go and announce the Gospel of the Lord.
