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 Mal 3:19-20a
Lo, the day is coming, blazing like an oven,
when all the proud and all evildoers will be stubble,
and the day that is coming will set them on fire,
leaving them neither root nor branch,
says the LORD of hosts.
But for you who fear my name, there will arise
the sun of justice with its healing rays.
~Thanks be to God
Responsorial Psalm
Ps 98:5-6, 7-8, 9
R. The Lord comes to rule
the earth with justice.
Sing praise to the LORD with the harp,
with the harp and melodious song.
With trumpets and the sound of the horn
sing joyfully before the King, the LORD.
R. The Lord comes to rule
the earth with justice.
Let the sea and what fills it resound,
the world and those who dwell in it;
let the rivers clap their hands,
the mountains shout with them for joy.
R. The Lord comes to rule the earth with justice.
Before the LORD, for he comes,
for he comes to rule the earth,
he will rule the world with justice
and the peoples with equity.
R. The Lord comes to rule the earth with justice.
2nd Reading 2 Thes 3:7-12
Brothers and sisters:
You know how one
must imitate us.
For we did not act
in a disorderly way among you,
nor did we eat food
received free from anyone.
On the contrary,
in toil and drudgery,
night and day
we worked, so as not
to burden any of you.
Not that we do not
have the right.
Rather, we wanted
to present ourselves
as a model for you,
so that you might imitate us.
In fact, when we
were with you,
we instructed you that
if anyone was unwilling to work,
neither should that one eat.
We hear that some are conducting
themselves among you
in a disorderly way,
by not keeping busy
but minding the
business of others.
Such people we instruct and
urge in the Lord Jesus Christ
to work quietly and
to eat their own food.
Alleluia
Stand erect and raise your heads
because your redemption is at hand.
Gospel
Lk 21:5-19
While some people
were speaking about
how the temple was adorned
with costly stones
and votive offerings,
Jesus said,
"All that you see here--
the days will come
when there will not be left
a stone upon another stone
that will not be thrown down."
Then they asked him,
"Teacher, when will this happen?
And what sign will there be
when all these things
are about to happen?"
He answered,
"See that you
not be deceived,
for many will come
in my name, saying,
'I am he,' and
'The time has come.'
Do not follow them!
When you hear of wars
and insurrections,
do not be terrified;
for such things
must happen first,
but it will not
immediately be the end."
Then he said to them,
"Nation will rise against nation,
and kingdom against kingdom.
There will be powerful
earthquakes, famines, and plagues
from place to place;
and awesome sights
and mighty signs
will come from the sky.
"Before all this happens,
however, they will seize
and persecute you,
they will hand you over
to the synagogues
and to prisons, and they
will have you led before kings
and governors
because of my name.
It will lead to your
giving testimony.
Remember, you are not
to prepare your defense beforehand,
for I myself shall give
you a wisdom in speaking
that all your adversaries
will be powerless to resist or refute.
You will even be handed
over by parents, brothers, relatives,
and friends, and they will put
some of you to death.
You will be hated by all
because of my name,
but not a hair on your
head will be destroyed.
By your perseverance
you will secure your lives."
~ 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 sea ted 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.

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.

generous gift of themselves
to others,
after your example.
Give them the loving support
of family and friends

their vocation in this life.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
