Liturgy of the Word
Elijah went a day’s
journey into the desert, until he came to a broom tree
and sat beneath it. He prayed for death saying: “This is enough, O LORD! Take my life,
for I am no better than my fathers.” He lay down
and fell asleep under the broom tree, but then an angel touched him
and ordered him to get up and eat. Elijah looked and there at his head
was a hearth cake and a jug of water. After he ate and drank,
he lay down again, but the angel of the LORD
came back a second time, touched him, and ordered, “Get up and eat,
else the journey will be too long for you!” He got up, ate, and drank; then strengthened by that food, he walked forty days and forty nights
to the mountain of God, Horeb.

Gospel
“I am the bread that came down from heaven, ”
and they said,
“Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph?
Do we not know his father and mother?
Then how can he say,
‘I have come down from heaven’?”
Jesus answered and said to them,
“Stop murmuring among yourselves.
No one can come to me unless
and I will raise him on the last day.
It is written in the prophets:
They shall all be taught by God.
Everyone who listens to
Not that anyone has seen the Father
except the one who is from God;
he has seen the Father.
Amen, amen, I say to you,
whoever believes has eternal life.
I am the bread of life.
Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert,
this is the bread that comes down from heaven
so that one may eat it and not die.
I am the living bread
whoever eats this bread will live forever;
and the bread that I will give
The Gospel of the Lord,
~ Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ
Homily
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 salvation
He came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate
of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake He was crucified
under Pontius Pilate,
He suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge
the living and the dead
and 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 sins
and I look forward to the
resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Sign of Peace
Communion Song:
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.

to the priesthood, diaconate and to religious life.
Through the intercession of the Blessed Mother,

Increase the faith of all within our diocese,
and especially the faith of those You are calling.
We ask this through Christ, Your Son our Lord. ~ Amen
