00:14In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, the Lord be with you.
00:21Dear friends, today we celebrate the first anniversary of the election of Pope Leo,
00:27and so this Mass is being offered in a special way for the Holy Father.
00:31We pray that he may continue to be a voice for peace,
00:35and that he be that brother that strengthens all the brothers and confirms them in the faith,
00:41as Jesus said before his Passion.
00:44You and I, dear friends, also we pray for one another, for our needs, and for that of the whole
00:51world,
00:52and acknowledging in God's presence that we are not perfect,
00:56but also acknowledging God's incredible love for us as to acknowledge our sins,
01:01and so prepare ourselves to celebrate the sacred mysteries.
01:06You were sent to heal the contrite of heart, Lord have mercy.
01:10You came to call sinners, Christ have mercy.
01:14You are seated at the right hand of the Father to intercede for us, Lord have mercy.
01:20May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to everlasting life.
01:27Let us pray.
01:32O God, who chose your servant Leo, in succession to the Apostle Peter, a shepherd of the whole flock,
01:41look favorably on the supplications of your people,
01:44and grant that as vicar of Christ on earth, he may confirm his brethren,
01:49and that the whole church may be in communion with him,
01:53in the bond of unity, love, and peace,
01:56so that in you, the shepherd of souls,
01:59all may know the truth and attain life eternal.
02:03Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
02:05who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
02:09God forever and ever.
02:11Amen.
02:13A reading from the Acts of the Apostles
02:16The Apostles and Elders decided to choose delegates to send to Antioch,
02:21with Paul and Barnabas.
02:22The whole church concurred with this.
02:25They chose Judas known as Barsabbas and Silas,
02:29both leading men in the brotherhood,
02:31and gave them this letter to take with them.
02:34The Apostles and Elders, your brothers,
02:37send greetings to the brothers of pagan birth
02:39in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia.
02:43We hear that some of our members have disturbed you with their demands
02:47and have unsettled your minds.
02:49They acted without any authority from us,
02:52and so we have decided unanimously to elect delegates
02:56and to send them to you with Barnabas and Paul,
03:00men we highly respect
03:01and who have dedicated their lives to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
03:07Accordingly, we are sending you Judas and Silas,
03:10who will confirm by word of mouth
03:12what we have written in this letter.
03:15It has been decided by the Holy Spirit
03:25and by ourselves
03:26not to saddle you
03:27with any burden beyond these essentials.
03:30You are to abstain from food,
03:32sacrifice to idols,
03:34from blood,
03:35from the meat of strangled animals,
03:37and from fornication.
03:39Avoid these,
03:41and you will do what is right.
03:43Farewell.
03:44The party left
03:45and went down to Antioch,
03:47where they summoned the whole community
03:49and delivered the letter.
03:51The community read it
03:52and were delighted
03:53with the encouragement it gave them.
03:56The word of the Lord.
03:58Thanks be to God.
04:00Our response is,
04:01Alleluia.
04:03My heart is ready,
04:04O God,
04:05my heart is ready.
04:06I will sing,
04:07I will sing your praise.
04:09Awake my soul,
04:11awake lyre and harp,
04:12I will awake the dawn.
04:15Alleluia.
04:16I will thank you,
04:17Lord,
04:17among the peoples,
04:18praise you among the nations,
04:20for your love reaches to the heavens
04:21and your truth to the skies.
04:24O God,
04:24arise above the heavens,
04:26may your glory shine on earth.
04:29Alleluia.
04:32Alleluia,
04:33Alleluia.
04:33I call you my friend,
04:35says the Lord,
04:36for I have made known to you
04:37all that the Father has told me.
04:40Alleluia.
04:42The Lord be with you.
04:44A reading from the Holy Gospel
04:46according to John.
04:48Glory to you,
04:49O Lord.
04:51Jesus said to his disciples,
04:53This is my commandment.
04:56Love one another
04:57as I have loved you.
04:59A man can have no greater love
05:02than to lay down his life
05:03for his friends.
05:05You are my friends,
05:06if you do what I command you.
05:09I shall not call you servants anymore,
05:12because a servant does not know
05:14his master's business.
05:16I call you friends,
05:18because I have made known to you
05:20everything I have learned from my Father.
05:23You did not choose me.
05:24No,
05:26I chose you,
05:27and I commissioned you
05:29to go out
05:30and to bear fruit,
05:31fruit that will last.
05:32And then the Father
05:34will give you
05:35anything you ask him
05:36in my name.
05:37What I command you
05:39is to love
05:40one another.
05:42The Gospel of the Lord.
05:44Praise to you,
05:45Lord Jesus Christ.
06:08Blessed are you,
06:09Lord God of all creation,
06:10for through your goodness
06:11we have received the bread
06:12we offer you.
06:13Fruit of the earth
06:14and work of human hands
06:15it will become for us
06:16the bread of life.
06:18Blessed be God forever.
06:40Blessed are you,
06:41Lord God of all creation,
06:42for through your goodness
06:43we have received the wine
06:45we offer you.
06:46Fruit of the vine
06:46and work of human hands
06:48it will become for us
06:49our spiritual drink.
06:51Blessed be God forever.
07:04Pray, brothers and sisters,
07:06that my sacrifice
07:07and yours
07:07may be acceptable
07:08to God,
07:09the Almighty Father.
07:10May the Lord accept
07:11the sacrifice at your hands
07:12for the praise
07:13and the glory of his name
07:15for our good
07:16and the good of all
07:16his holy church.
07:18Be pleased, we pray,
07:19O Lord,
07:19with the offerings
07:20presented here
07:21and covered with
07:22unfailing protection
07:23your holy church
07:25together with Leo,
07:26our Pope,
07:27whom you have chosen
07:28to be her shepherd
07:29through Christ,
07:30our Lord.
07:31Amen.
07:34The Lord be with you
07:35and with your spirit
07:36lift up your hearts.
07:38We lift them up
07:39to the Lord.
07:39Let us give thanks
07:40to the Lord our God.
07:41It is right and just,
07:43it is truly right and just,
07:44our duty and our salvation
07:46at all times
07:47to acclaim you,
07:48O Lord,
07:49but in this time above all
07:50to laud you
07:51yet more gloriously
07:52when Christ,
07:53our Passover,
07:54has been sacrificed.
07:56By the oblation
07:57of his body
07:57he brought
07:58the sacrifices
07:59of all
07:59to fulfillment
08:00in the reality
08:02of the cross.
08:03And by commending
08:04himself to you
08:05for our salvation,
08:06showed himself
08:07the priest,
08:08the altar,
08:09and the lamb
08:09of sacrifice.
08:10Therefore overcome
08:12with paschal joy
08:13every land,
08:13every people
08:14exalts in your praise,
08:16and even the heavenly powers
08:17with the angelic hosts,
08:19sing together
08:20the unending hymn
08:21of your glory
08:21as they acclaim.
08:23Holy,
08:24holy,
08:25holy Lord,
08:26God of hosts,
08:27heaven and earth
08:28are full of your glory,
08:29Hosanna in the highest.
08:31Blessed is he
08:32who comes
08:33in the name of the Lord,
08:34Hosanna in the highest.
08:39You are indeed holy,
08:41O Lord,
08:41the fount of all holiness.
08:43Make holy,
08:44therefore,
08:44these gifts,
08:45we pray,
08:46by sending down
08:47your Spirit upon them
08:48like the doofo,
08:49so that they may become
08:50for us
08:51the body and blood
08:52of our Lord
08:53Jesus Christ.
08:55At the time
08:56he was betrayed
08:57and entered willingly
08:58into his passion,
08:59he took bread
09:01and giving thanks,
09:03broke it
09:03and gave it
09:04to his disciples,
09:06saying,
09:06Take this all of you
09:08and eat of it,
09:10for this is my body,
09:12which will be given up
09:14for you.
09:43in a similar way,
09:44when supper was ended,
09:45he took the chalice,
09:47and once more giving thanks,
09:49he gave it to his disciples,
09:50saying,
09:51Take this all of you
09:53and drink from it,
09:54for this is the chalice
09:55of my blood,
09:56the blood of the new
09:57and eternal covenant,
09:59which will be poured out
10:01for you and for many,
10:02for the forgiveness
10:03of sins.
10:04Do this in memory
10:06of me.
10:28The mystery of faith.
10:31When we eat this bread
10:32and drink this cup,
10:34we proclaim your death,
10:35O Lord,
10:36until you come again.
10:38Therefore,
10:39as we celebrate
10:40the memorial
10:40of his death
10:41and resurrection,
10:42we offer you,
10:43Lord,
10:43the bread of life
10:44and the chalice
10:44of salvation,
10:46giving thanks
10:47that you have held us
10:48worthy to be
10:49in your presence
10:49and minister to you.
10:51Humbly we pray
10:52that partaking
10:54of the body
10:54and blood of Christ,
10:56we may be gathered
10:56into one
10:57by the Holy Spirit.
10:59Remember,
11:00Lord,
11:00your church
11:01spread throughout
11:02the world
11:02and bring her
11:03to the fullness

11:05together with
11:06Leo,
11:06our Pope
11:07and Charles,
11:08our Bishop
11:08and all the clergy.
11:11Remember also
11:11our brothers and sisters
11:12who have fallen asleep
11:13in the hope
11:14of the resurrection
11:15and all who have died
11:17in your mercy.
11:18Welcome them
11:18into the light
11:19of your face.
11:20Have mercy on us
11:21all,
11:22we pray

11:28and all the saints
11:30who have pleased you
11:30throughout the ages,

11:33coheirs to eternal life

11:36and glorify you

11:42and with him
11:43and in him,
11:44O God,
11:44Almighty Father,

11:46of the Holy Spirit,
11:47all glory
11:48and honor
11:49is yours
11:50forever
11:51and ever.
11:52Amen.
11:55At the Savior's command
11:57and formed
11:58by divine teaching,
11:59we now dare to say,
12:00Our Father,
12:02who art in heaven,
12:03hallowed be thy name.
12:05Thy kingdom come,
12:06thy will be done
12:08on earth
12:08as it is in heaven.
12:10Give us this day
12:11our daily bread
12:12and forgive us
12:14our trespasses
12:15as we forgive those
12:16who trespass
12:17against us.
12:18And lead us not
12:19into temptation,
12:21but deliver us
12:22from evil.
12:23Deliver us,
12:24Lord,

12:24from every evil,
12:25graciously grant
12:26peace in our days,

12:33as we await
12:35the blessed hope
12:35and the coming
12:36of our Savior,
12:37Jesus Christ.
12:38For the kingdom,
12:39the power,
12:40and the glory
12:40are yours
12:41now and forever.
12:42Lord Jesus Christ,

12:45Peace I leave you,

12:52her peace and unity

13:59Lord,
14:00I am not worthy
14:01that you should enter
14:03under my roof,
14:04but only say the word
14:06and my soul
14:06shall be healed.
14:09My Jesus,

14:12in the most blessed sacrament.
14:14I love you above all things
14:15and I desire

14:17into my soul.
14:18Since I cannot now
14:20receive you sacramentally,
14:22commonly,
14:22spiritually into my heart.
14:24I embrace you
14:25as if you were already there
14:27and unite myself
14:28wholly to you.
14:30Never permit me
14:31to be separated from you.

14:41Lord,
14:41by the power
14:42of this mystery.

14:45in unity and charity.
14:48And as you have entrusted
14:49your servant Leo
14:50with the office of shepherd,
14:52grant him always
14:53salvation and protection
14:54together with the flock
14:56entrusted to his care.
