00:13In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, peace be with you.
00:19We acknowledge our sins, but more importantly, the compassion, the mercy and the love of God.
00:24You forgive our sins, Lord, have mercy. You call us away from confusion into love, Christ, have mercy.
00:32And you fill us with your Holy Spirit, Lord, have mercy.
00:37May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and lead us into healing and life everlasting.
00:44Let us pray.
00:46Enable us, we pray, Almighty God, to proclaim the power of the risen Lord,
00:51that we who have received the pledge of his gift may come to possess all he gives when it is
01:00fully revealed.
01:01Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
01:07God, forever and ever. Amen.
01:10A reading from the Acts of the Apostles.
01:13The whole group of believers was united heart and soul.
01:18No one claimed for their own use anything that they had, as everything they owned was held in common.
01:25The apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus with great power,
01:30and they were all given great respect.
01:34None of their members was ever in want,
01:36as all those who owned land or houses would sell them and bring the money from them to present it
01:44to the apostles.
01:45It was then distributed to any members who might be in need.
01:50There was a Levite of Cypriot origin called Joseph,
01:55whom the apostles surnamed Barnabas, which means son of encouragement.
02:00He owned a piece of land and he sold it and brought the money and presented it to the apostles.
02:08The word of the Lord.
02:10Thanks be to God.
02:13Alleluia.
02:15The Lord is king with majesty and robed.
02:18The Lord has robed himself with might.
02:21He has geared himself with power.
02:24Alleluia.
02:25The world you made firm not to be moved.
02:28Your throne has stood firm from abode.
02:31From all eternity, O Lord, you are.
02:34Alleluia.
02:36Truly, your decrees are to be trusted.
02:39Holiness is fitting to your house, O Lord, until the end.
02:44Alleluia.
02:46Alleluia, alleluia.
02:47The Son of Man must be lifted up,
02:49so that all who believe in him may have eternal life.
02:53Alleluia.
02:57The Lord be with you.
02:59A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John.
03:03Glory to you, O Lord.
03:05Jesus said to Nicodemus,
03:08Do not be surprised when I say,
03:10You must be born from above.
03:12The wind blows wherever it pleases.
03:14You hear its sound.
03:16But you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going.
03:19That is how it is with all who are born of the Spirit.
03:25How can that be possible?
03:26Asked Nicodemus.
03:28You are a teacher in Israel,
03:30and you do not know these things, replied Jesus.
03:34I tell you solemnly,
03:35we speak only about what we know,
03:37and witness only to what we have seen,
03:40and yet you people reject our evidence.
03:42If you do not believe me when I speak about things in this world,
03:47how are you going to believe me
03:49when I speak to you about heavenly things?
03:52No one has gone up to heaven
03:54except the one who came down from heaven,
03:57the Son of Man who is in heaven.
04:00And the Son of Man must be lifted up
04:02as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert,
04:05so that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.
04:11The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
04:14Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
04:24The grace of God stirs in the depths of our heart,
04:30and God can be a God of surprises.
04:34We remember that God's love is bigger than anything.
04:38As we face our own fears and struggles and challenges,
04:42we keep remembering that God is always with us,
04:47enabling us to be honest and open,
04:50and to let his Spirit lead us to where the Spirit wants to.
04:54So we open our heart to be born again,
04:57renewed and refreshed by this same Spirit.
05:07Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation.
05:09For to your goodness we have this bread to offer.
05:12Which earth has given human hands have made,
05:15it will become for us the bread of life.
05:18Blessed be God forever.
05:34Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation.
05:36For to your goodness we have this wine to offer.
05:38Fruit of divine work of human hands,
05:40it will become a spiritual drink.
05:43Blessed be God forever.
05:51Let us pray, brothers and sisters,
05:53that my sacrifice and yours
05:55may be acceptable to God, our Almighty Father.
05:58May the Lord accept this sacrifice from our hands
06:01to the praise and glory of God's name,
06:04for our good and the good of God's Holy Church.
06:07Grant, we pray, O Lord,
06:08that we may always find delight in these paschal mysteries,
06:12so that the renewal constantly at work within us
06:15may be the cause of our unending joy.
06:18Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
06:27The Lord be with you.
06:29Lift up your hearts.
06:31Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
06:34It is truly right and just,
06:36much more than a duty and good for our salvation.
06:39At all times to acclaim you, O Lord,
06:41but in this time above all,
06:43to praise you yet more gloriously,
06:45when Christ our Passover has been sacrificed.
06:48Through him the children of light rise to eternal life,
06:51and the halls of the heavenly kingdom
06:54are thrown open to the faithful.
06:56For his death is our ransom from death,
06:59and in his rising the life of all has risen.
07:03Therefore overcome with paschal joy,
07:05every land, every people exalts in your praise,
07:08and even the heavenly powers with the angelic hosts
07:11sing together the unending hymn of your glory,
07:15as they acclaim,
07:17Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of hosts.
07:21Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
07:23Hosanna in the highest.
07:25Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
07:28Hosanna in the highest.
07:32You are indeed holy, O Lord,
07:34the fount of all holiness.
07:35Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray,
07:38by sending down your spirit upon them like the dewfall,
07:42so they may become for us
07:43the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.
07:46At the time he was betrayed
07:48and ended willingly into his passion,
07:51he took bread,
07:55and giving thanks, broke it,
07:57and gave it to his disciples,
07:59saying,
07:59Take this, all of you, and eat of it,
08:01for this is my body,
08:03which will be given up for you.
08:10In a similar way,
08:11when supper was ended,
08:12he took the chalice,
08:14and once more giving thanks,
08:16he gave it to his disciples,
08:18saying,
08:19Take this, all of you, and drink from it,
08:20for this is the chalice of my blood,
08:23the blood of the new and eternal covenant,
08:26which will be poured out for you and for many
08:29for the forgiveness of sins.
08:32Do this in memory of me.
08:39The mystery of faith.
08:42We proclaim your death, O Lord,
08:45and profess your resurrection
08:47until you come again.
08:52Therefore, as we celebrate the memorial
08:54of his death and resurrection,
08:56we offer you, Lord,
08:57the bread of life
08:58and the chalice of salvation,
09:00giving thanks that you've held us worthy
09:02to be in your presence
09:04and minister to you.
09:06Humbly we pray
09:07that partaking of the body
09:09and blood of Christ,
09:10we may be gathered into one
09:12by the Holy Spirit.
09:14Remember, Lord,
09:15your church spread throughout the world
09:17and bring her to the fullness of charity.
09:20Together with hope,
09:21me, your unworthy servant,
09:23Eugene, our Emeritus Bishop,
09:25and all the clergy who serve your people
09:27and all the people your son has gained for you.
09:31Remember also our brothers and sisters
09:33who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection
09:37and all who have died in your mercy.
09:40Welcome them into the light of your face.
09:43Have mercy on us all, we pray,
09:45that with the blessed Virgin Mary,
09:47Mother of God,
09:48the St. Joseph, the spouse,
09:49with the blessed apostles
09:51and all the saints
09:52who have pleased you throughout the ages,
09:54we may it through your grace
09:55merit to be coerced with eternal life
09:58and may praise and glorify you
10:00through your Son, Jesus Christ.
10:04Through him and with him and in him,
10:06O God, almighty Father,
10:08in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
10:10all glory and honor is yours
10:12for ever and ever.
10:14Amen.
10:16At the Savior's command
10:17and formed by divine teaching,
10:19we dare to say,
10:20Our Father, who art in heaven,
10:23hallowed be thy name.
10:25Thy kingdom come,
10:26thy will be done on earth
10:28as it is in heaven.
10:30Give us this day our daily bread
10:32and forgive us our trespasses
10:34as we forgive those
10:36who trespass against us
10:38and lead us not into temptation,
10:40but deliver us from evil.
10:43Deliver us, Lord, we pray,
10:45from every evil.
10:46Graciously grant peace in our days
10:48that by the help of your mercy
10:50we may be always free from sin
10:52and safe from all distress
10:53as we await the blessed hope
10:55and the coming of our Savior,
10:57Jesus Christ.
10:59For the kingdom,
11:00the power and the glory
11:01are yours now and forever.
11:04Lord Jesus Christ,
11:05who said to your apostles,
11:07Peace I leave you,
11:08my peace I give you,
11:09look not on our sins,
11:11but on the faith of your church,
11:12and graciously grant her peace
11:14and unity in accordance
11:15with your will,
11:16who live and reign forever
11:18and ever.
11:19Amen.
11:19The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ
11:21be with you always.
11:23Let us offer each other
11:24a sign of peace.
11:26Peace be with you all.

12:09but only say the word

12:31already there

12:46by which you have redeemed us

12:54eternal gladness
12:55through Christ our Lord.
