Penitential Act: Confiteor
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.
-AND/OR-
Lord have Mercy,
Christ have Mercy,
Lord have Mercy
Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to people of good
Liturgy of the Word
1st Reading Rv 7:2-4, 9-14
I, John, saw another angel
come up from the East,
holding the seal of the living God.
He cried out in a loud voice
to the four angels
who were given power to damage
the land and the sea,
“Do not damage the land
or the sea or the trees
until we put the seal on the foreheads
of the servants of our God.”
I heard the number of those who
had been marked with the seal,
one hundred and forty-four
thousand marked
from every tribe of the children
of Israel.
After this I had a vision
of a great multitude,
which no one could count
from every nation, race,
people, and tongue.
They stood before the throne
and before the Lamb,
wearing white robes
and holding palm branches
in their hands.
They cried out in a loud voice:
“Salvation comes from our God,
who is seated
on the throne,
and from the Lamb.”
All the angels stood
around the throne
and around the elders
and the four living creatures.
They prostrated themselves
before the throne,
worshiped God,
and exclaimed:
“Amen. Blessing and glory,
wisdom and thanksgiving,
honor, power, and might
be to our God forever and ever.
Amen.”
Then one of the elders spoke up
and said to me,
“Who are these wearing white robes,
and where did they come from?”
I said to him,
“My lord, you are the one who knows.”
He said to me,
“These are the ones who have
survived the time of great distress;
they have washed their robes
and made them white in the Blood of the Lamb.”
~Thanks be to God
Responsorial Psalm
Ps 24:1bc-2, 3-4ab, 5-6
R. Lord, this is the people that
longs to see your face.
The LORD’s are the earth and its fullness;
the world and those who dwell in it.
For he founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the rivers.
R. Lord, this is the people that
longs to see your face.
Who can ascend the mountain
of the LORD?
or who may stand in his holy place?
One whose hands are sinless,
whose heart is clean,
who desires not what is vain.
R. Lord, this is the people that
longs to see your face.
He shall receive a blessing
from the LORD,
a reward from God his savior.
Such is the race that seeks him,
that seeks the face of the God of Jacob.
2nd Reading 1 Jn 3:1-3
See what love the Father
that we may be called
Yet so we are.
The reason the world does not know us
is that it did not know Him.
Beloved,
what we shall be
We do know that when
for we shall see Him as He is.
Everyone who has this hope
as He is pure.
The Word of God ~Thanks be to God
Alleluia
Come to me, all you who labor
and are burdened,
and I will give you rest,
says the Lord.
Gospel
Lk 19:1-10
he went up the mountain,
and after he had sat down,
his disciples came to him.
He began to teach them, saying:
“Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the land.
Blessed are they who hunger
and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the clean of heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are they who are persecuted
for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when they
insult you and persecute you
and utter every kind of evil
against you falsely because of me.
Rejoice and be glad,
for your reward will be great in heaven.”
~ Praise to you
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.

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.
