00:14In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, peace be with you.
00:19We acknowledge our need for ongoing healing as we embrace the mystery of love and life.
00:30You forgive our sins, Lord, have mercy.
00:34You are with us in everything, Christ, have mercy.
00:39And you call us away from fear and confusion into love, Lord, have mercy.
00:45May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and lead us into healing and life everlasting.
00:54Let us pray.
00:57O God, who showed the light of your truth, to those who go astray, so that they may return to
01:04the right path.
01:05Give all who for their faith they profess are counted Christians.
01:10The grace to reject whatever is contrary to the name of Christ, and to strive after all that doesn't honour.
01:17Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the Holy Spirit, God, for ever
01:24and ever. Amen.
01:28In the reign of Ahaz, son of Judah, king of Judah,
01:44Razon, the king of Ahaz, went up against Jerusalem with Beka, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, to lay siege
01:55to it, but he was unable to capture it.
01:59The news was brought to the house of David.
02:06Then the heart of the king and the hearts of the people shuddered, as the trees of the forest shudder
02:14in front of the wind.
02:15The Lord said to Isaiah, go with your son, shear Yashud, and meet Ahaz at the end of the conduct
02:27of the upper pool of the forest field road, and say to him,
02:32Pay attention, keep calm, have no fear, do not let your heart sink, because of these two smouldering stumps of
02:42firebrands,
02:43or because Aram, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah have plotted to ruin you,
02:51and have said, let us invade Judah, and terrorize it, and seize it for ourselves,
02:57and set up a king there, the son of Tabil.
03:02The Lord says this, it shall not come true, it shall not be.
03:07The capital of Aram is Damascus, the head of Damascus, Razon,
03:12the capital of Ephraim, Samaria, the head of Samaria, the son of Remaliah,
03:19six or five years more, and shattered Ephraim shall no longer be a people.
03:26But if you do not stand by me, you will not stand at all.
03:33The word of the Lord.
03:36Thanks be to God.
03:38God upholds his city forever.
03:41God upholds his city forever.
03:45The Lord is great and worthy to be praised in the city of our God.
03:49His holy mountain raises in beauty the joy of all the earth.
03:55God upholds his city forever.
03:59Mount Zion, through Paul of the earth, the great king's city.
04:03God, in the midst of his citadels, has shown himself his stronghold.
04:08God upholds his city forever.
04:11For the kings assembled together.
04:14Together they advanced.
04:16They saw, at once they were astounded.
04:18His maid, they fled in fear.
04:21God upholds his city forever.
04:24A trembling sees them there, like the pangs of birth.
04:28Or, as the east wind destroys the ships of Tashish.
04:33God upholds his city forever.
04:38Alleluia, alleluia.
04:40If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
04:43Alleluia.
04:46The Lord be with you.
04:48A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew.
04:52Glory to you, O Lord.
04:55Jesus began to reproach the towns in which most of his miracles had been worked.
05:00Because they refused to repent.
05:03Alas for you, Korazim.
05:05Alas for you, Bethsaida.
05:08For if the miracles done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon,
05:13they would have repented long ago in set cloth and ashes.
05:18And still, I tell you, that will not go as hard on Judgment Day with Tyre and Sidon as with
05:25you.
05:27And as for you, Kepharonahum, did you want to be exalted as high as heaven?
05:32You shall be thrown down to hell.
05:34For if the miracles done in you had been done in Sodom,
05:38it would have been standing still.
05:41And still, I tell you, it will not go as hard with the land of Sodom
05:46on Judgment Day as with you.
05:51The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
05:55Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
05:59Jesus was not recognized in his own country.
06:03We can take things for granted.
06:05We can have our presuppositions
06:07and not let God in.
06:10Not allow God to disturb our status quo.
06:13Because our status quo may be about stagnation
06:16and mediocrity.
06:18A stumbling block to our growth.
06:21We need to allow the mystery of God to convert us.
06:27Jesus spoke about being born again.
06:30Allowing God to constantly change our hearts.
06:33To mold our hearts.
06:34To become more and more the image of God that we are.
06:38To be our true self.
06:40Lord, here I am.
06:42I choose to do your will.
06:50Rest are you, Lord God of all creation.
06:52For to your goodness we have this bread to offer.
06:55Which earth has given, human hands have made.
06:58It will become for us the bread of life.
07:01Blessed be God forever.
07:21Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation.
07:24For to your goodness we have this wine to offer.
07:27Fruit of divine work of human hands.
07:29It will become our spiritual drink.
07:32Blessed be God forever.
07:45Let us pray, brothers and sisters, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God, our almighty Father.
07:52May the Lord accept the sacrifice at our hands.
07:55For the praise and glory of God's name.
07:58For our good and the good of God's holy church.
08:02Look upon the offerings of the church, O Lord, as she makes her prayer to you.
08:07And grant that when consumed by those who believe, they may bring ever greater holiness.
08:13Through Christ our Lord.
08:15Amen.
08:17The Lord be with you.
08:20Lift up your hearts.
08:23Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
08:26It is truly right and just our duty and our salvation.
08:30Always and everywhere to give you thanks, Father most holy.
08:34To your beloved Son, Jesus Christ.
08:36Your word, whom you made all things, whom you sent as our Saviour and Redeemer, incarnate by the Holy Spirit
08:44and born of the Virgin, fulfilling your will and gaining for you a holy people, he stretched out his hands
08:51as he endued his passion, so as to break the bonds of death and manifest the resurrection.
08:57And so, with the angels and all the saints, we declare your glory, as with one voice, we acclaim, Holy,
09:05Holy, Holy Lord, God of hosts.
09:08Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
09:10Hosanna in the highest.
09:12Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
09:16Hosanna in the highest.
09:19You are indeed holy, O Lord, the font of all holiness.
09:23Make holy, therefore, these gifts we pray, by sending down your Spirit upon them that we do for, so they
09:30may become for us the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.
09:34At the time he was betrayed and entered willingly into his passion, he took bread and, giving thanks, broke it
09:43and gave it to his disciples, saying,
09:45Take this, all of you, and drink from it, for this is the chalice of my blood, the blood of
10:13the new and eternal.
10:15Covenant, which will be poured out for you, and for many, for the forgiveness of sins.
10:22Do this in memory of me.
10:31The mystery of faith.
10:34We proclaim your death, O Lord, and profess your resurrection until you come again.
10:43Therefore, as we celebrate the memorial of his death and resurrection, we offer you, Lord, the bread of life and
10:49the chalice of salvation, giving thanks that you've held us worthy to be in your presence and minister to you.
10:57Humbly we pray that, partaking of the body and blood of Christ, we may be gathered into one by the
11:03Holy Spirit.
11:05Remember, Lord, your church, spread throughout the world, and bring her to the fullness of charity, together with Leo, our
11:11Pope, me, your unworthy servant, and all the clergy.
11:16Remember also our brothers and sisters who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection, and all who have
11:22died in your mercy.
11:24Welcome them into the light of your face.
11:27Have mercy on us all, we pray, that with the blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, blessed Joseph, her spouse,
11:34with the blessed apostles, and all the saints, who have pleased you throughout the ages,
11:40we may merit to be coerced to eternal life, and may praise and glorify you through your Son, Jesus Christ.
11:51Through him, and with him, and in him, of God Almighty, Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all
11:57glory and honor is yours forever and ever. Amen.
12:02At the Savior's command and form by divine teaching, we dare to say,
12:07Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
12:11Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
12:16Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us,
12:24and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
12:29Therein with us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days,
12:34that by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress,
12:40as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
12:47For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever.
12:53Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your apostles,
12:56Peace I leave you, my peace I give you,
12:58look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church,
13:01and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will,
13:06who live and reign forever and ever. Amen.
13:09The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always.
13:13Let us offer each other a sign of peace.
13:16Peace be with you all.
13:19Lamb of God,
13:20you take away the sins of the world,
13:23have mercy on us.
13:25Lamb of God,
13:26you take away the sins of the world,
13:29have mercy on us.
13:30Lamb of God,
13:32you take away the sins of the world,
13:34grant us peace.
13:50Behold the Lamb of God,
13:52who takes away the sins of the world,
13:54happy are those who are called to the supper of the Lamb.
13:57Lord, I am not worried you should enter under my roof.
14:00But only say the word,
14:02and my soul shall be few.
14:04My Jesus,
14:05I believe that you are present in the most blessed sacrament.
14:08I love you above all things,
14:10and I desire to receive you into my soul.
14:13Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally,
14:17commonly, spiritually, into my heart,
14:19I embrace you as if you were already there,
14:22and unite myself wholly to you.
14:25Never permit me to be separated from you.
14:28Amen.
14:29Let us pray.
14:30Having consumed these gifts,
14:31we pray, O Lord,
14:33that by our participation in this mystery,
14:35the saving effects upon us may grow.
14:38Through Christ our Lord.
14:39Amen.
14:40The Lord be with you.
14:42And may the peace and the blessing of the Father,
14:44and of the Son,
14:45and of the Holy Spirit come upon you,
14:47remain always with you.
14:48Let us go and proclaim the gospel by our lives.
14:51Thanks be to God.
