ENTRANCE ANTIPHON GOSPEL ACCLAMATION cf. Revelation 1:8 Blest be God the Father, and the Only Begotten Son of God, and Glory to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; to God who is, also the Holy Spirit, for he has shown us his merciful love. who was, and who is to come. FIRST READING Exodus 34:4b–6, 8–9 (164A) GOSPEL John 3:16–18 Moses went up Mount Sinai to meet the Lord. He begged the Lord God loved the world so greatly that he sent his only Son that all to accompany the Israelites, “a stiff-necked people.” He asked God may have eternal life. The Son did not come to condemn the world to pardon their wickedness and sin. but that it might be saved through him. Whoever believes in the Lord will live forever. RESPONSORIAL PSALM Daniel 3:52, 53, 54, 55 Glory and praise forever! COMMUNION ANTIPHON Galatians 4:6 Since you are children of God, God has sent into your hearts the SECOND READING 2 Corinthians 13:11–13 Spirit of his Son, the Spirit who cries out: Abba, Father. Paul encouraged the Corinthians to mend their sinful ways and help one another live in peace. He wrote to them, “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.”
