Words of Absolution Gloria Richard J. Clark

Collect O God, who in this wonderful Sacrament have left us a memorial of your Passion, grant us, we pray, so to revere the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood that we may always experience in ourselves the fruits of your redemption. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the , God, for ever and ever. Amen!

L i t u rg y o f t h e W o r d First Reading Exodus 24:3-8

This is the blood of the Covenant that the Lord has made with you

When Moses came to the people and related all the words and ordinances of the Lord, they all answered with one voice, “We will do everything that the Lord has told us.” Moses then wrote down all the words of the Lord and, rising early the next day, he erected at the foot of the mountain an altar and twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel. Then, having sent certain young men of the Israelites to offer holocausts and sacrifice young bulls as peace offerings to the Lord, Moses took half of the blood and put it in large bowls; the other half he splashed on the altar. Taking the book of the covenant, he read it aloud to the people, who answered, “All that the Lord has said, we will heed and do.” Then he took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, saying, “This is the blood of the covenant that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words of his.”

The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm Psalm 116(115):12–13, 15–16bc, 17–18 (AP)

How can I repay the LORD for all his goodness to me? The cup of salvation I will raise; I will call on the name of the LORD.

How precious in the eyes of the LORD is the death of his faithful. Your servant am I, the son of your handmaid; you have loosened my bonds. A thanksgiving sacrifice I make; I will call on the name of the LORD. My vows to the LORD I will fulfill before all his people.

Second Reading Hebrews 9:11-15

The blood of Christ can purify our inner self

Brothers and sisters: When Christ came as high priest of the good things that have come to be, passing through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made by hands, that is, not belonging to this creation, he entered once for all into the sanc- tuary, not with the blood of goats and calves but with his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption. For if the blood of goats and bulls and the sprinkling of a heifer’s ashes can sanctify those who are defiled so that their flesh is cleansed, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works to worship the living God. For this reason he is mediator of a new covenant: since a death has taken place for deliverance from transgressions under the first covenant, those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance.

The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. (Short Form)

I am the living bread that came down from heaven, says the Lord; whoever eats this bread will live forever. Gospel Mark 14:12-16,22-26

This is my body; this is my blood

On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when they sacrificed the Passover lamb, Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?” He sent two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the city and a man will meet you, carrying a jar of water. Follow him. Wherever he enters, say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says, “Where is my guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’” Then he will show you a large upper room furnished and ready. Make the preparations for us there.” The disciples then went off, entered the city, and found it just as he had told them; and they prepared the Passover. While they were eating, he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it. He said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many. Amen, I say to you, I shall not drink again the fruit of the vine until the day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” Then, after singing a , they went out to the Mount of Olives.

The gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Homily

The Apostle’s I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into hell; on the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of almighty; from there He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy , the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. Universal Prayers

Blessed those whose way is blameless, who walk by the law of the LORD. Blessed those who keep his testimonies, who seek him with all their heart.

In my heart I treasure your promise, that I may not sin against you.

Remember your word to your servant by which you give me hope. This is my comfort in affliction, your promise that gives me life.

The law of your mouth is more precious to me than heaps of silver and gold. How sweet to my tongue is your promise, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light for my path. I rejoice at your promise, as one who has found rich spoil. Choir (at 11:00) Sacramentum Maurice Duruflé (1902-1986)

The Church points to the annual Eucharistic devotions on the as being of special importance and meaning for the pastoral life of a city. It is therefore appropriate to continue these devotions to express our common faith and adoration. The Blessed Sacrament remains exposed on the altar allowing for a period of silent adoration. All are encouraged to spend time with Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. TheC faithfulOMM areU thenNIO askedN C toH exitAN theT church in reverent silence.

Today, the Feast of Corpus Christi, will be the final Sunday for the Schola Cantorum here at St. John The Evangelist as we take our summer hiatus.

I am grateful beyond words for the fabulous efforts and keen musicianship of this exquisitely-gifted ensemble. We have worked tirelessly to sing as safely as possible at all times during this period of stress and anxiety, following all protocols closely and limiting our time together.

Please join me in offering heartfelt thanks to: Organist, Alex Bean; sopranos Ana Enriquez and Rebecca Lawson; altos Tess Grynoch, Sarah Iker, and Hannah Judas; tenors Manuel Gardea and Arthur Robillard; and baritones, Michael Carr, and Benjamin Hansberry.

We will look forward to gathering once again in the Fall as a FULL choir!

Repleatur os meum laude tua! Let my mouth be filled with thy praise!

As we move into the summer months and many of our regular Lectors take vacation time, I am reaching out to ask for people to come forward and consider becoming Lectors here at Saint John the Evangelist Parish. I am happy to meet with anyone who may be willing to offer their time and talent to expand our small army of readers at our Saturday and Sunday Masses.

I am especially reaching out to the young people who I see attending mass each weekend to ask you to consider offering your time to this most integral service to the church and to our parish.

If you are interested in learning more please reach out to me by email at [email protected]. Thank you!
