00:14In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, peace be with you.
00:19We acknowledge our sins, we acknowledge the compassion, the mercy, and the love of God.
00:24Your love is bigger than our doubts and fears. Lord, have mercy.
00:28Lord, have mercy.
00:29You teach us to be generous like you are generous. Christ, have mercy.
00:33Christ, have mercy.
00:34And you give us your life fully. Lord, have mercy.
00:37Lord, have mercy.
00:38May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and lead us into healing and life everlasting.
00:45Amen.
00:45Let us pray.
00:47O God, from whom all good things come, grant that we who call on you in our need may, at
00:54your prompting,
00:55discern what is right, and by your guidance do it, through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
01:01who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.
01:08A reading from the book, the first book of the kings.
01:13Elijah the Tishbite of Tishbe in Gilead said to Ahab,
01:21As the Lord lives, the God of Israel, whom I serve, there shall be neither dew nor rain for three
01:29years except at my order.
01:32The word of the Lord came to him, Go away from here, go eastwards, and hide yourself in the Wadi
01:39Shandarith, which lies east of Jordan.
01:43You can drink from the stream, and I have ordered the ravens to bring you food there.
01:51He did as the Lord had said.
01:54He went and stayed in the Wadi Shandarith, which lies east of Jordan.
02:01The ravens brought him bread in the morning and meat in the evening, and he quenched his thirst at the
02:10stream.
02:12The word of the Lord.
02:14Thanks be to God.
02:17Our help is in the name, our help is from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
02:22Our help is from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
02:26I lift up my eyes to the mountains, from where shall come my help?
02:31My help shall come from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
02:34Our help is from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
02:38May he never allow you to stumble.
02:41Let him sleep not, your guard.
02:43No, he sleeps not, nor slumbers, Israel's guard.
02:47Our help is from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
02:51The Lord is our guard and your shade.
02:55At your right side he stands.
02:58By day the sun shall not smite you, nor the moon in the night.
03:03Our help is from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
03:06The Lord will guard you from evil.
03:09He will guard your soul.
03:10The Lord will guard your going and coming, both now and forever.
03:14Our help is from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
03:19Alleluia, alleluia.
03:21Rejoice and be glad.
03:22Your reward will be great in heaven.
03:25Alleluia.
03:28The Lord be with you.
03:30A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew.
03:34Seeing the crowds, Jesus went up the hill.
03:37There he sat down and was joined by his disciples.
03:40Then he began to speak.
03:42This is what he taught them.
03:45How happy are the poor in spirit.
03:48Theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
03:50Happy the gentle.
03:52They shall have the earth for their heritage.
03:55Happy those who mourn.
03:57They shall be comforted.
03:59Happy those who hunger and thirst for what is right.
04:02They shall be satisfied.
04:04Happy the merciful.
04:06They shall have mercy shown them.
04:08Happy the pure in heart.
04:10They shall see God.
04:12Happy the peacemakers.
04:14They shall be called children of God.
04:16Happy those who are persecuted in the cause of right.
04:20Theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
04:22Happy are you when people abuse you and persecute you and speak all kinds of calumny against you, my account.
04:31Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven.
04:35This is how they persecuted the prophets before you.
04:40The gospel of the Lord.
04:42Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
04:45In the Beatitudes, Jesus turns things upside down a bit.
04:50You know, the world will say, happy are you if you are rich.
04:54Happy are you if you don't have to be sad.
04:56Happy are you if you're just saying something very different.
05:00Reminding us that whatever happens is the greater good that matters.
05:03And that God is with us in every situation and indeed will turn even grief to good, even poverty to
05:12good, etc.
05:14So God is with us and all the time turning all things for our good in his generosity.
05:34Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for your goodness we have this bread to offer, which earth has
05:39given human hands have made.
05:41It will become for us the bread of life.
05:44Blessed be God forever.
05:46Amen.
05:48Amen.
05:49Amen.
05:49Amen.
06:03Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for to your goodness we have this wine to offer, fruit of
06:08divine work of human hands.
06:10It will become a spiritual drink.
06:12Blessed be God forever.
06:13Amen.
06:14Amen.
06:17Amen.
06:19Amen.
06:23Let us pray, brothers and sisters, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God, our Almighty Father.
06:35Lord, kindly open our service, O Lord, we pray.
06:40Look kindly upon our service, O Lord, we pray.
06:42That what we offer may be an acceptable oblation to you and lead us to grow in charity through Christ,
06:49our Lord.
06:50Amen.
06:51The Lord be with you.
06:52And with your spirit.
06:53Lift up your hearts.
06:55Lift up your hearts.
06:55Lift up your heart.
06:56Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
06:58Right and just.
06:59It is truly right and just our duty and our salvation.
07:02Always and everywhere to give you thanks, Father most holy, for your beloved Son, Jesus Christ, your word to whom
07:10you made all things, whom you sent as our Saviour and Redeemer, incarnate by the Holy Spirit and born of
07:16the Virgin.
07:17Fulfilling your will and gaining for you a holy people, he stretched out his hands as he endured his passion,
07:24so as to break the bonds of death and manifest the resurrection.
07:28And so, with the angels and all the saints, we declare your glory, as with one voice we acclaim, Holy,
07:37Holy, Holy Lord, God of hosts, heaven and earth are full of your glory, Hosanna in the highest.
07:45Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest.
07:51You are indeed holy, O Lord, the fount of all holiness.
07:55Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray, by sending down your Spirit upon them like the dewfall, so that they
08:02may become for us the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.
08:06At the time he was betrayed and entered willingly into his passion, he took bread, and giving thanks, broke it,
08:14and gave it to his disciples, saying,
08:17Take this, all of you, and drink from it, for this is the chalice of my blood, the blood of
08:45the new and eternal covenant.
08:47Which will be pulled out for you, and for many, for the forgiveness of sins. Do this in memory of
08:55me.
09:02The mystery of faith, when we eat this bread and drink this cup, we proclaim your death, O Lord, until
09:10you come again.
09:13Therefore, as we celebrate the memorial of his death and resurrection, we offer you, Lord, the bread of life and
09:23the chalice of salvation,
09:25giving thanks that you've held us worthy to be in your presence and minister to you.
09:31Humbly we pray that, partaking of the body and blood of Christ, we may be gathered into one by the
09:37Holy Spirit.
09:39Remember, Lord, your Church, spread throughout the world, and bring her to the fullness of charity,
09:45together with Leo, our Pope, your unworthy servant and all the clergy.
09:50Remember also our brothers and sisters who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection,
09:55and all who have died in your mercy, welcome them into the light of your face.
10:03Have mercy on us all, we pray, that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
10:09with the Blessed Joseph, her spouse, with the blessed apostles,
10:14and all the saints who have pleased you throughout the ages,
10:17who may merit to be coerced to eternal life,
10:21and may praise and glorify you through your Son, Jesus Christ.
10:28Through him and with him and in him, O God, Almighty Father,
10:31in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honour is yours forever and ever. Amen.
10:38At the Saviour's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say,
10:42Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
10:47Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
10:53Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses,
10:59as we forgive those who trespass against us,
11:03and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
11:08Deliver us, Lord, from every evil.
11:11Graciously grant peace in our days,
11:13that by the help of your mercy,
11:15we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress,
11:20as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
11:25For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours,
11:29now and forever.
11:31Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your apostles,
11:34Peace I leave you, my peace I give you,
11:37look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church,
11:40and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will,
11:45who live and reign forever and ever. Amen.
11:48The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always.
11:51Let's offer each other a sign of peace.
11:53Peace be with you all.
11:56Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
12:00have mercy on us.
12:02Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
12:06have mercy on us.
12:08Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
12:12grant us peace.
12:27Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world,
12:30happy are those who are called to the supper of the Lamb.
12:34Lord, I am not worthy you should enter under my roof,
12:37but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.
12:42My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most blessed sacrament.
12:47I love you above all things,
12:48and I desire to receive you into my soul.
12:51Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally,
12:55comely spiritually into my heart,
12:57I embrace you as if you were already there,
13:00and unite myself wholly to you.
13:03Never permit me to be separated from you.
13:06Amen.
13:07Let us pray.
13:12May your healing work, O Lord, free us, we pray,
13:16from doing evil,
13:18and lead us to what is right.
13:20Through Christ our Lord.
13:22Amen.
13:22The Lord be with you.
13:24May the peace and the blessing of the Father,
13:26and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit
13:28come upon you and remain always with you.
13:30Amen.
13:30Let us go and proclaim the gospel by our lives.
13:34Thanks be to God.
13:35Thanks be to God, and God bless your day.
