OPENING HYMN

HOLY, HOLY, HOLY

Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee.Holy, Holy, Holy! Merciful and mighty!God in three Persons, blessed Trinity.

Holy, Holy, Holy! All the saints adore Thee!Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,God everlasting through eternity.

I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

Reading 1 1 Kings 19:9A, 11-13A

At the mountain of God, Horeb,Elijah came to a cave where he took shelter.Then the LORD said to him,“Go outside and stand on the mountain before the LORD;the LORD will be passing by.”A strong and heavy wind was rending the mountainsand crushing rocks before the LORD—but the LORD was not in the wind.

Reading 1 (cont.)

After the wind there was an earthquake—but the LORD was not in the earthquake.After the earthquake there was fire—but the LORD was not in the fire.After the fire there was a tiny whispering sound.When he heard this,Elijah hid his face in his cloakand went and stood at the entrance of the cave.

The Word of the Lord. R. Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm Psalm 112:1-2, 5-6, 7-8, 9

R. Blessed the man who is gracious and lends to those in need.

Blessed the man who fears the LORD,who greatly delights in his commands.His posterity shall be mighty upon the earth;the upright generation shall be blessed.

R. Blessed the man who is gracious and lends to those in need.

Responsorial Psalm (cont.)

Well for the man who is gracious and lends,

who conducts his affairs with justice;

He shall never be moved;

the just one shall be in everlasting remembrance.

R. Blessed the man who is gracious and lends to those in need.

An evil report he shall not fear;

his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.

His heart is steadfast; he shall not fear

till he looks down upon his foes.

R. Blessed the man who is gracious and lends to those in need.

Responsorial Psalm (cont.)

Lavishly he gives to the poor,

his generosity shall endure forever;

his horn shall be exalted in glory.

Reading 2 2 Corinthians 9:6-10

Brothers and sisters:

Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly,and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.Each must do as already determined, without sadness or compulsion,for God loves a cheerful giver.Moreover, God is able to make every grace abundant for you,so that in all things, always having all you need,you may have an abundance for every good work.

Reading 2 (cont.)

As it is written:

He scatters abroad, he gives to the poor;

his righteousness endures forever.

The one who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food

will supply and multiply your seed

and increase the harvest of your righteousness.

The Word of the Lord. R. Thanks be to God.

Gospel John 12:24-26

Jesus said to his disciples:“Amen, amen, I say to you,unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies,it remains just a grain of wheat;but if it dies, it produces much fruit.Whoever loves his life loses it,and whoever hates his life in this worldwill preserve it for eternal life.Whoever serves me must follow me,and where I am, there also will my servant be.The Father will honor whoever serves me.”The Gospel of the Lord. R. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Profession of Faith

I believe in one God, the Father almighty,maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages.God from God, Light from Light,true God from true God,begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;through him all things were made.

For us men and for our salvationhe came down from heaven,and by the Holy Spirit

(At the words that follow, all bow.)was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,and became man. (End bow)

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,he suffered death and was buried,and rose again on the third dayin accordance with the Scriptures.

Profession of Faith (cont.)

He ascended into heavenand is seated at the right hand of the Father.He will come again in gloryto judge the living and the deadand his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,who proceeds from the Father and the Son,

who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sinsand I look forward to the resurrection of the deadand the life of the world to come. Amen.

UNIVERSAL PRAYER R. Lord hear our prayer.

ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy

Sacrament.

I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into

my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,

come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace You as if You were already there and unite

myself wholly to You.

Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
