00:13In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, peace be with you.
00:18We acknowledge our sins, we acknowledge the compassion, the mercy and the love of God.
00:23Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy.
00:29May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins and lead us into healing and life everlasting. Let
00:38us pray.
00:41Almighty ever-living God, whom taught by the Holy Spirit, we dare to call you our Father.
00:46Bring, we pray, to perfection in our hearts the spirit of adoption as your sons and daughters,
00:51that we may merit to enter into the inheritance you have promised through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
00:58who lives and reigns with you in the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.
01:05A reading from the prophet Ezekiel.
01:09As I, Ezekiel, listened, God shouted,
01:12Come here, you scourges of the city, and bring your weapons of destruction.
01:20Immediately six men advanced from the upper north gate, each holding a deadly weapon.
01:28In the middle of them was a man in white with a scribe's ink horn in his belt.
01:35They came in and halted in front of the bronze altar.
01:40The glory of God of Israel rose off the cherubs where it had been and went up to the threshold
01:48of the temple.
01:50He called the man in white with a scribe's ink horn in his belt and said,
01:57Go all to the city, all to Jerusalem, and mark a cross on the foreheads of all who deplore and
02:05disapprove of all the filth practiced in it.
02:09I heard him say to the others, follow him through the city and strike.
02:15Show neither pity nor mercy.
02:18Old men, young men, virgins, children, women, kill and exterminate them all.
02:24But do not touch anyone with a cross on his forehead.
02:28Begin at my sanctuary.
02:30So they began with the old man in front of the temple.
02:34He said to them, Defile the temple, fill the courts with corpses, and go.
02:41They went out and hacked their way to the city.
02:44The glory of the Lord came up from the temple threshold and passed over the cherubs.
02:50The cherubs spread their wings and rose from the ground to leave.
02:55And as I watched, the wheels rose with them.
02:58They paused at the entrance of the east gate of the temple of the Lord.
03:03And the glory of the God of Israel hovered over them.
03:07This was the creature that I had seen supporting the God of Israel besides the river Chebar.
03:15And I was now certain that these were cherubs.
03:19Each had four faces and four wings and what seemed to be human hands under their wings.
03:26Their faces were just as I had seen them beside the river Chebar.
03:32Each moved straight forward.
03:36The word of the Lord.
03:38Thanks be to God.
03:40The glory of the Lord is higher than the skies.
03:43The glory of the Lord is higher than the skies.
03:47Praise our servants of the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord.
03:50May the name of the Lord be blessed both now and forevermore.
03:55The glory of the Lord is higher than the skies.
03:58From the rising of the sun to the setting.
04:01Praise be the name of the Lord.
04:03High above all nations is the Lord.
04:05Above the heavens his glory.
04:07The glory of the Lord is higher than the skies.
04:11Who is like the Lord our God.
04:13Who has risen on high to his throne.
04:16Yet stooped from the heights to look down.
04:18To look down upon heaven and earth.
04:21The glory of the Lord is higher than the skies.
04:25Hallelujah, hallelujah.
04:27God was in Christ to reconcile the world to himself.
04:30And the good news of reconciliation he has entrusted to us.
04:34Hallelujah.
04:37The Lord be with you.
04:39A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew.
04:42Glory to you, O Lord.
04:44Jesus said to his disciples,
04:47If your brother does something wrong, go and have it out with him alone.
04:52Between you two selves.
04:54If he listens to you, give one back your brother.
04:57If he does not listen, take one or two others along with you.
05:02The evidence of two or three witnesses is required to sustain any charge.
05:08But if he refuses to listen to these, report it to the community.
05:13And if he refuses to listen to the community, treat him like a pagan or a tax collector.
05:19I tell you solemnly, whatever you bind on earth shall be considered bound in heaven.
05:24Whatever you loose on earth shall be considered loosed in heaven.
05:28I tell you solemnly once again, if two of you on earth agree to risk to ask anything at all,
05:36it will be granted to you by my Father in heaven.
05:39For where two or three meet in my name, I shall be there with them.
05:45The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
05:54Jesus is giving instructions as to the signs of his church.
05:58People forgiving each other the authority given to the church to teach in his name.
06:03And also that he is present with us when we gather.
06:09A great reminder that whatever challenges we have to face in life, we are secure in the love of God.
06:15And within the bosom of his love and the church that he has given to us.
06:39Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation.
06:42For to your goodness we have this bread to offer.
06:44Which earth has given human hands have made.
06:46It will become for us the bread of life.
06:49Blessed be God forever.
07:15Blessed be God of all creation.
07:17For to your goodness we have this wine to offer.
07:19and fruit of divine and work of human hands.
07:22It will become a spiritual ring.
07:24Blessed be God forever.
07:37Let us pray brothers and sisters that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God our almighty Father.
07:44May the Lord accept this sacrifice at our hands.
07:47For the praise and glory of God's name.
07:50For our good and the good of God's holy church.
07:54be pleased our Lord to accept the offerings of your church.
07:57For in your mercy you have given them to be offered.
08:00And by your power you transform them into the mystery of our salvation.
08:04Through Christ our Lord.
08:06Amen.
08:07The Lord be with you.
08:09Lift up your hearts.
08:11Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
08:17Amen.
08:18Amen.
08:30Amen.
08:31and Redeemer, incarnate by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin, fulfilling your will
08:37and gaining for you a holy people, he stretched out his hands as he endured his passion, so
08:43as to break the bonds of death and manifest the resurrection.
08:48And so, with the angels and all the saints, we declare your glory, as with one voice we
08:54acclaim, holy, holy, holy Lord, God of hosts, heaven and earth are full of your glory,
09:01hosanna in the highest.
09:04Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, hosanna in the highest.
09:09You are indeed holy, O Lord, the fount of all holiness, make holy therefore these gifts,
09:14we pray, by sending down your Spirit upon them like the dewcourt, so they may become for
09:20us the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.
09:22At the time he was betrayed and entered willingly into his passion, he took bread, and giving
09:30thanks, broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, Take this, all of you, and eat of
09:36it, for this is my body, which will be given up for you.
09:46In a similar way, when supper was ended, he took the chalice.
09:51And once more giving thanks, he gave it to his disciples, saying, Take this, all of you, and drink
10:00from it, for this is the chalice of my blood, the blood of the new and eternal covenant, which
10:06will be poured out for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins.
10:19The mystery of faith, save us, Savior of the Lord, for by your cross of the world, for by your
10:27cross and resurrection, you have set us free.
10:31Therefore, as we celebrate the memorial of his death and resurrection, we offer you, Lord, the bread of life and
10:37the chalice of salvation, giving thanks that you've held us worthy to be in your presence and minister to you.
10:45Humbly, we pray that, partaking of the body and blood of Christ, we may be gathered into one by the
10:51Holy Spirit.
10:52Remember, Lord, your Church, spread throughout the world, and bring her to the fullness of charity,
10:58together with Leo, our Pope, me, your unworthy servant, and all the clergy.
11:04Remember also our brothers and sisters who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection, and all who have
11:12died in your mercy.
11:13Welcome them into the light of your face.
11:17Have mercy on us all, we pray, that with the blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, blessed Joseph, her spouse,
11:24with the blessed apostles, and all the saints who have preached you throughout the ages,
11:29who may merit to be coerced to eternal life, and may praise and glorify you through your Son, Jesus Christ.
11:40Through him and with him and in him, O God, Almighty Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all
11:47glory and honour is yours for ever and ever. Amen.
11:52To the Saviour's command and form by divine teaching, we dare to say,
11:57Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
12:01Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
12:06Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses,
12:11as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
12:18Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil.
12:23Lord, we pray, that with the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from
12:28all distress,
12:29as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
12:34For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever.
12:40Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your apostles,
12:43Peace I leave you, my peace I give you,
12:45look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church,
12:49and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will,
12:53who live and reign forever and ever. Amen.
12:56The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always.
12:59Let us offer each other a sign of peace.
13:02Peace be with you all.
13:05Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.
13:11Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.
13:16Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world, grant us peace.
13:38Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, happy are those who are called to
13:43the supper of the Lamb.
13:44Lord, I am not worthy, you should enter under my roof, but only say the word, and my soul shall
13:50be healed.
13:51My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most blessed sacrament.
13:56I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul.
14:01Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally,
14:04comely, spiritually, into my heart,
14:06I embrace you as if you were already there,
14:09and unite myself wholly to you.
14:12Never permit me to be separated from you.
14:15Amen.
14:16Let us pray.
14:21May the communion in your sacrament that we have consumed save us, O Lord,
14:26and confirm us in the light of your truth.
14:29Through Christ our Lord.
14:30Amen.
14:31The Lord be with you,
14:32and may the peace and the blessing of the Father, and of the Son,
14:35and of the Holy Spirit come upon you and remain always with you.
14:38Let us go and proclaim the gospel by our lives.
14:42Thanks be to God, and God bless your day.
